It is ancestral property she can ask for her share in the share of her father, but it is very important to know that how the property transferred to grand mother

I think 'pagadi property' is nothing but tenancy rights in the dwelling unit. The property does not belong to the tenant. The property continues to belong to the original owner. As such, the question of any partition of the pagadi property would not arise. And in any case, after the grand father the tenancy rights would fall on his son i.e. the father of the grand daughter in question. After having been married, naturally such a daughter has to live in her matrimonial home. She cannot claim any tenancy rights in the pagadi property.
