HI,
all the daughters will get equal rights in the property like sons.
in your case how your mother acquired that land is very important point. and when your mother died is also important point.
if your mother died without any will or gift all her children will get equal rights in the property if it is self acquired by your mother.
you file partition suit against your brother's and sister's for your share in the property.

Hi
A women's property is her absolute property and all the legal heirs (including the daughter's) will get equal share of the property.
if you are demanding a share of property, then you should file a suit for partition in the court where the property is situated.
assuming property value as per sub-registrar office records is Rs1,00,000-/- and there are 8 siblings. so each of the sibling will get 1/8 of share. so the court fees will be 5% of 1/8 share of Rs1Lakh. So the court fees will be Rs625_/-
Lawyer fees will be additional.
hope this helps.
