If it is an ancestral property then the WILL made by your father is not binding upon you. All the 3 brothers and 3 sisters have equal share in the property. You can claim your share by filing a partition suit.

If your father has bequeathed that property through a validly executed will or last testament then all the legatees including you will be binded by the directions of will(amount of share).

In the context of your father dying intestate, your sisters have absolutely got no interest in the property though they have the right to challenge the legality of the said will at the time when it is applied for probate, if in the meantime the probate is not granted. However, even if the probate is granted your sisters may apply for revocation of will in the same court from where it was granted under Indian Succession Act if they wish.

You can easily claim for your share inthe said property through court by filing a suit for partition and injunction where you can claim your share and restrain the other co-sharer from making it mortgaged further as well.

U can claim ur 1/6th share in the properties.
You father had no right to exeucte the will in favour of only in the name of son at most he could have made will of his share only. The will exeucuted by ur father is not binding on you. File a suit for partitin and seperate possesion of ur 1/6th share. You can file an IA u/o 39 r 1 & 2 restraining ur brother from obtaining the further overdraft facility. Ur sister will have the right equally.

no doubt will executed by ur father can not snatch ur right in proprty if the same is ancesatral property and not self acquired one n for that purpose u hav 2 file a suit to challenge d validity of d will by getting it declared as null n void from the civil court n then at d same time lay ur claim over property being cosharer as consequential relief

As you said it is an ancestral property so the WILL made by your father is not binding on that property. You can claim your 1/6th share by filing a partition suit.
