Mother can challange the Deed and also ask for maintenance, as Old Age Parents have right to get Maintenance from their children.

Then you go ahead and first of all challange the gift deed with the allegation of fraud then also file case of maintenance. Coz domestic violance is something different.

Old Father and Mother have right to maintenance so go ahead.

Good luck.

If the condition of maintenance to aged mother was written in the gift deed then it may be cancelled on the ground of voilation of terms of gift deed, then it will amount to conditional gift, and the donee can reveoke the gift if the condition is fulfilled.

You should file a case for claim of maintenance of aged mother, you will succeed surely and the son and daughter will liable to pay maintenance to their mother.

If the condition of maintenance was written then you should file a suit for cancellation of gift deed and application for injunction/stay on the property.
