Property sold long ago , can we get value

(Querist) 01 March 2022 This query is : Resolved 
A person has 6 child , 1 son and 5 girl.This person died in 1970 without a will.
Son of his child made a false Warison certificate that , he is only waris of the person.
Made a sale of 20 Bigha land in 1994 stating , he is the only waris of the person
and hide it from 5 girl.The Buyer sale that land to another buyer.
Girls and their husband came to know it in 2020 , that the land was sold when
the construction was started.Now girls and his husband and
son daughter want their part (either land or price).

My question is that
1) As it is too long , can girl and their husband want to back their property or
market value ?

2)Is there any law that , sale has been too long it can not be claim.

3)At least we can get property value , is it possible ?

In 1970, daughters may not inherit property.
The property sold a long back, now their claim may not sustain.

Father is stated to have died in 1970 and part of property sold in 1994, how come daughters of deceased did not come to know during elapsed period of 28 years.
The part of property stated to have been sold cannot be cancelled / restored to vendor (seller) or his sibling at this stage.
Consult a local prudent lawyer for better appreciation of facts, professional advise and necessary proceeding for claiming share of daughters from the property left by deceased.

Agreed with the advice of learned expert Dr.J.C.Vashista.

The sale of property belonging to the daughters is invalid. However, their claim, primarily. lies against the brother and his estate. The purchasers too are liable unless they could prove themselves to be innocent third parties.
