Hi mam you are telling the property already divided and registered, then they got the right on that property hence it leaves to their will and wish to sell or give to any bady by way of gift or will, but there is a chance to get the share in the property into your names. Anyway you may meet an advocate with full details they will advise you

No they cannot...pursuant of quashing Sec 6A by Hon'ble Supreme Court ...and present amendments ... you as now girls stand equal at par with boys in the family n your birth...and you are at liberty to get your rights and share Under the Indian Succession Act as amended up to date...
