Daughter's share in property

Respected Advocates,

 My Father-in-Law  aquired agricultural land in seventies near a town in Chhattisgarh. Now that land is within city limits and has much value. He has 3 sons and 2 daughters. Daughters got married after 1984. Now he want to sell it for constructing houses elsewhere in the city  for his sons only. Can daughters claim shares in this property,

If it is ancestral property daughter may claim, but if it is self acquired, father can transfer and distribute it according to his wish.

Learned Advocated,

So how do you define ancestral property ? 

Arvind Singh Chauhan (advocate)     17 April 2011

if propery is inherited by father from ancesters, it is a ancestral oroperty, if it is earned by him, it is self acquired.
