how can we split the property between the brothers. the property is a disputed property the brothers are not willing to share the property?

You can settle the dispute by asking all the brothers to enter into a family settlement deed or a partition deed. All the shares will be equally bifurcated and each brother shall have their own share and portion in the property.

Q: Nana died without will. Do i have share in that property?

From childhood, me, my brother and mother were staying with our nana and nani. There were some differences between our mother and father. Nana and nani died and my mother is their only daughter. After my marriage i moved out from nana nani's home. Do i have share in that property? The property was self acquired by nana.

Advocate Tanushree Sahani answered
Since this property belongs to your nana and in his absence the first legal heir is your nani and in event of your nani's demise your mother will be the legal heir. The property documents like khata can be transferred to your nani's name now. And then she can either make a will or a gift deed in your favour. Then you can directly own the property . But as far as direct inheritance is concerned , you can inherit only after your mother inherits after your nani's demise and after your mom's demise.
