On the other hand if the property in question was acquired by inheritance; for example your father got the property from his father, then all children could lay a claim to the property as it originally belonged to their grandfather. Property disputes in India can last generations and takes a heavy toll on on concerned both financially and mentally and if possible should be avoided.
