Sir,
The second wife's heirs in the sense, sons or daughters are having the right/share over the ancestral property of her husband.

Dear Anonymous,
You have to make it clear whether "the second wife" mentioned by you is legally wedded wife (after the death/divorce of the first wife)? If it is so, then the children born through the second wife would also have the right in the ancestral property. Otherwise such children would have right only in the self-acquired property of the father and not in the ancestral property.

Please clarify the status of the second wife, married took place after the death of the first marriage or not.
