Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India

i was adopted (no legal documents) by my uncle i.e. my biological fathers elder brother when i was one year old . henceforth my baptism certificate , school , college certificates all bearing my adopted parents name . they treated me as their own child. i was not aware of this adoption till i was 16 years of age . Now i am 36.i was a christian by birth, but now i am married to a muslim .Both my adopted parents have passed away one year back . My adopted parents have a son who is elder to me . now he is not giving my share of the property. Do i have the rights to the property? Can i file for a partition suit? what should i do? if i file a case will it become a fraud case because i do not have any legal documentataion regarding my adoption? i have met two three advocates but all are giving different guidances. please waiting for ur valuable reply. the said property is in kerala.
Tibrewal sir u said that"(but if court ask for proof that you have been adopted then you need to produce the evidence..") sir how do i produce evidence.there are no legal documents about the adoption. the parents who adopted me are no more. only my biological parents, sisters and brother are alive. is it possible to get a adoption certificate now? if yes then how long will it take?

Dear client...

No now its not at all possible... what about the school certificates ... in that ur father name must be written... in ur school register , rashion card, voter card , pan card and in ur church while keeping ur name or any rituals ur father name may have been written find out it can be a valid proof.
