1. Your parents can do whatever they wish with their self acquired property on which you have no right at all,

2. On ancestral property you have equal right alongwith other legal heirs of the said property,

3. However, the meaning of ancestral property as per law has to be made clear first before claiming its share,

4. If your great grand father leaves his property which has not yet been divided, partitioned, willed, settled or gifted till date which is enjoyed by all the co=percener, then it is an ancestral property to the 4th generation i.e. the great grand daughter/son being you,

5. If there is an ancestral property of yours, file a partition suit claiming your share in it.

HI
Andhra pradesh under the leadership of Shri.N.T.Ramarao was the first state to introduce amendment to Hindu Succession act in the year 1986 wherein women had equal rights as men in succession.
subsequently other states followed and this law was adopted across india in the year 2005.
since succession is a subject of both central and state, Andhra pradesh amendment is valid even today.
your mother has every right on the property and she and her sisters can claim their share of their mother's property.
