Since it was your grand father's self acquired property, he had every right to dispose of the same in whichever way that he liked. If as per his wish he has given the property amongst his daughters-in-law and nothing to his daughter, then his action cannot be questioned by anybody. Your mother has no legal right to object to or claim anything.

Questioned property was your grandfather's self acquired so he had every right to bequeathed the same to any one.Neither your mother can object nor can claim any share in property.A valid will requires signature of testator with two witnesses so your mother's signature was not required.

There is no chance for your mother to agitate as your grand-father was free to bequeath his own self acquired property as per his free whims and wishes which he did so by way of his will. There was no requirement of the signature of your mother or any other beneficiary over the will executed by your maternal grand-father.

Your mother's sign is not required in your grand father's will. The property is self acquired and your mother has no claim on the said land since there is a will. If your grand father had died intestate, i.e. without any will, then your mother could have claimed her share in the said property.
