You can get equal share of entire property 5 + 1.5 + 2 with class 1 legal heirs of your father. The presumption is that the undivided property belongs to all legal heirs equally. Those who claimed that as his own must establish before court that it is purchased with self acquired money.

You being a Government servant can not claim that you have taken dowry and purchased the land with that illegal amount.

Contact a local advocate and get the issu solved amicably as partition suits take not less than 10 years and it is very difficult to produce records before the court to show that the property was acquired with separate income in case of public servants.

There is no mention of your father and his will if any or those proofs and in whose name the property stands as of now. It is very difficult to guide on these sensitive information in open forum.

Being a Govt. Servant avoid making self defeating statements as posts in open forum. Contact a sincere advocate and trust him and his advice.

Please inform the following:

Property inherited from your grand father and the property purchased by your father both are in his (father's)name.
Subseuqnet purchase of land also in the name of Father
When further land was purchased by your father and other land mentioned by you, whether in the sale deed it was noted as Hindu Undivided Family?
