Sir, my question is regarding my wifes ancestral property.
That is after her father!s father death (i.e grand father)her grandmaa along with is 4 sons & 2 daughter!s entered into a registered partition deed in 2004 over her grand father!s left over property & her grand maa!s self acquired property(both the property clubbed in one partition deed).
Now, in 2014 her father divided his inherited share of property through registered partition deed along with his 4 sons only & left out his 3 daughter!s(including her)
Sir,please clarify whether do she have rights over this property. If so what shall she do, advise .

Dear Mr. Suresh Babu,
Many persons are under the mistaken notion, that once the property belongs to the Grand father, then the property is 'ANCESTRAL'. THIS IS COMPLETELY WRONG.
One has to know as to (i) in which year the property came to the hand of the grand father, (ii) he self-acquired it or (iii) if he got it from his father then in which year he got it from his father.
Without knowing the above minimum details, nobody can tell whether it is 'ancestral' property or not.
Therefore to say whether one is entitled to any share or not, one has to first also know the character of the property.

Agreed with the opinions of expert Mr. Anirudh on the subject and related issues.
With the given information, it appears that this is not ancestral property hence the author's wife cannot dispute her father's action of partitioning and settling the inherited property bin favor of his sons alone. This property in the hands of her father an be independently dealt by him as an absolute owner as per his own will and wish.
