It would depend upon the kind of evidence you or your father has with regard to the payment. Main hurdle is section 4 of the Benami transactions act. To bring in the net of proviso to section 4, you have to show that it was a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) and the property is of HUF. then you all will have a right.

On the other hand, if the mother is the recorded owner, you all are licensee under her. You will have a right to file a case for ejectment but she cannot throw out forcefully.
