Ancesteral Property

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 13 March 2011 This query is : Resolved
Hello ,
My late grandfather had possessed agricultural land close to a major city in India . He has 2 sons, my father being one of them. My grandfather's other son(my dad's brother) has 2 sons.
Even though my dad's brother is no more, for some unknown reason my cousins are delaying the partition of the land which is still in my deceased grandfather's name. My dad is keen on the partition.
Can he legally force my cousins into a partition?How long will the partition process take going through the
court system?
Since i am a woman and the only child to my dad am i at a disadvantage of getting my share in case my dad cannot get the partition done during his lifetime?

Thanks,
RD

Yes your father can file a suit for partition. it will take nearly 2-3 years in getting the partition. If you want more query you can contact 9868529732

Thanks for your reply .
Can my cousins legally claim more share of the property under the reason that they took care of the land(paying land tax etc.. ) for the last 25 years?

No, they cannot more than what their father had. Your father and other sons and daughters will get equal share and so on your cousins.

First enter your fathers name in ROR, by applying to revenue authorities along with death certificate of your grandpaa, and succession certificate.
