The property purchased in your name cannot be treated as family property to be divided among the family members but your own. If the facts of the issue are true as you narrated here they cannot do anything at all. Even filing of a suit may also be difficult as they cannot convincingly produce anything to show their claim prima facie.

You have to prove who invested money to buy the property in your grandmother's name..if not it is treated it as her property and she has right to dispose it as her wishes.

To the best of my knowlegeany propery that comes into the handsof a woman by way of Sidhana, gift, will etc., acquires the status of a se;lf acqored property in the hands of the woman under the Womens' property Act, 1956 and she can dispose it off in any manner as she wishes
