Dear Questioner
I would like like to inform you that as per the amendment of 2005 in Hindu Secession Act, It is clearly stipulates that daughter have right in the property of the father which pertains to the ancestral property but daughter can not claim her right in self acquired property of your father because that property is self earning property.
