Mother deserted by children

Legal opinion required -pls advice :

I have been lending help and assistance to a 75 year widowed lady who was made homeless . 

Son threatened and intimidated her to sign to sell the property and all took their shares and son took away her share also .

She is penniless.

One son  & second daughter ill treated and eldest daughter can not keep her bcos of having special child of 32 years .

Arranged her to be in old age home .

In Police station, son n eldest daughter agreed for 7k monthly . The other daughter only 3k though can afford 7k.

Can I issue a legal notice as a service oriented man to the children that if they don't take care of her old age home & medical  charges , I  will be compelled to file a suit for recovery of the sale proceeds of the property .

Legal Advice required 🙏🙏.
