Also noted that At the time of my marriage My husband was nothing taken from my Father & My father bear only marriage expenses . Father bear the same expenses for my brother's marriage too.
In my Father's family till date father bears all expenses including my brother family�s Expenses because They are joint family. My Brother is doing Govt. Job but share very low amount for family expenses.
My Father always bias to my Brother & My brother always take that advantage & emotional blackmail to my Father. For my brother My Father is blind folded. Father only see his son.

I am so depressed & feel deprived.
Is there any solution or provision for girl child that I can get / claim equal share as a heir ?

Dear Mrs. S Pathak,
Further to my previous advice, you unnecessarily seem to overburden yourself with all that is happening back at your maternal place. A wise wife will be her husband's companion. She shares his interests. She works with him. She realizes that his future is her future. She grows with him and manifests an appreciation of the better things in life. She keeps herself detached from any unhappiness in her family. She tries to forget the past and concentrates on the present and the future. She leaves her past behind and concentrates on the present and the future.
Leave yourself no time for brooding. As a well integrated individual, you should be realistic in your reaction to misfortune, you should be prepared for hard luck, and you should courageously challenge fate, despite life's adversities.
Regards,
If the property of your father is his self acquired property - legally you cannot do anything. But if the property is ancestral you are entitled to an equal share.
