Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India
Partition of ancestral property
My father inherited 4 acres of agricultural land from my grandfather.He is a retired goverment servant and earning a good pension apart from the income from this ancestral agricultural land. We are only two brothers but due to reasons unknown to me, my father always traets me like a step son. My father spends the income from this agricultural land on the family of my brother but does not give me anything.Now I have come to know that he is planning to sell this land. What can I do in this matter? Can I file a partition suit for this land even when my father is alive? I live in a different city separate from my father. Can I claim my share in this property during the life time of my father?

You have no right in your fathers property . Whatever property your father has inherited from his father is his self acquired property under the law. He can do whatever he wishes to do with his property. Your suit for partition would be without locus standi and would not be maintainable.
