1. If you are bengali then there is nothing to worry about the ancestral nature of your property.
2. once the gift deed is made in your favour you have become its rightful owner and no one can challenge you title anymore.
3. Since the problem is continuing you can file the case in consumer forum even now.

Dear client,

You may file a consumer complaint in the consumer forum for poor construction against the builder. Though it will be better if you share the detailed facts. For further clarification please feel free to contact.
