As per Section 6 of the Hindu Succession Act, you have a right on the ancesteral property.

Further you will have to file a suit for partition thereby seeking claim in the property and alongwith the application you will have to file an application for temporary stay, thereby seeking status quo which means that your brother cannot sell the property.

It is an individual private matter, so you will not get free legal aid in this matter.
