Send a legal notice asking for maintenance for his you and your grandson if he is not willing to maintain.
Also file a suit for maintenance , so that he will appear before the court , since he is under legal obligation to maintain

As per your query

The Grandfather can on behalf of the children file an application under the section 125 of Cr. P.C. for maintenance of grand children wherein he can claim amount for their studies, maintenance, residence etc.

The Grandfather can also claim maintenance from his Son under the same provision.
