yes,your uncles can claim partition as initially the property belongs to your grand father and after his sad demise your uncles have not relinquished their share and rights they only made no objection in granting succession certificate in favour of your father that does not mean that your father is absolute owner of the property.

I agree with Mr Goyal !

The facts of your case mentioned in the query suggest that there is no partition and there is no relinquishment of joint rights of your uncles in favour of your father . The Mutation/recording the property in the name of One legal heir is for and on behalf of all the legal heirs- unless otherwise it is shown- established that the rights of the other legal heirs are legally & by legal implication relinquished /or/ extinguished !
