Quick Summary

This discussion concerns the inheritance of agricultural land purchased by a grandfather who died intestate in 1950. The key question is whether the mother, as the daughter of the original owner, has a share in the property, especially since the grandmother (original owner's wife) died after the Hindu Succession Act of 1956. The property was not partitioned between the uncle's family and the mother's family. The advice suggests that both the mother and the uncle's wife likely have equal shares, and a partition suit filed through a local lawyer is the recommended course of action.

Yes. Your mother and your uncle's wife have equal share over the property of your grandfather.

The issue can not receive precise guidance, unless the occupation, status, possession, enjoyment of property, revenue records are gone into, and the reasons for remaining silent all these years are convincingly explained. Contact a local advocate.

File a suit for partition through a local prudent lawyer.

As your grand-father and father died prior to 1956 so on demise of your grand-father the entire estate legally was inherited by your grand-mother who has died in the year post 1956 hence her estate shall go in favour of her successors including the successors of your father.

Suit for partition and possession is the sole remedy.
