Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in India
in 1988 my grandfather purchased a piece of land in the town balurghat of west-bengal. before his death in september 1998,my grandfather transferred the same property to my mother in march 1998 through an unregistered gift-deed or ghoroa danpatra,as it is called locally,and in which my grandfather and his legal heirs were duly signed into.it was also witnessed by one person.this property was later transferred to my name in 2007 through a registered gift deed.now in 2011 my uncles [legal heirs of my grandfather] are challenging the validity of my legal rights as well as the legal rights of my mother over the possession of the property as the ghoroa danpatra was not at all registered at the time of transfer to my mother or after that ever.it should be noted that we fell under the mitakshara law as we are rajasthanis by origin.it should also be noted that i constructed a commercial godown on the same piece of land in the year 1998 after it was gifted to my mother.
in this scenario,can you give me a proper legal advice regarding the claim of that of my uncles is just and lawful or not?

Your so called is Gift Deed is not accordance with law and your uncles are justified in challenging the same .
check out with local lawyer
as some times the customary usage may prevail so local lawyer can tell u the exact validity of the will
rest even being grandson u also have right to your ancestral property ... even if will is not valid
