Yes Definitely you are entitled for the maintenance depending on the circumstances ?The Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act 1956, clearly states that as a general rule of law a major can not ask for maintenance from her parents ,but in case daughter is not married and unable to maintain herself out of her earnings or due to some other physically infirm conditions then in such a case the father is bound to maintain his legitimate or illegitimate daughter in such circumstances.

yes you claim your rights on any ancestral property which your family holds and not any property which is individually purchased by any of the family members. you can file a case in the court claiming such rights.
