What to do if a brother is not sharing mother medical expenses


12-Oct-2023 (In Family Law)
Dear Sir/Mam, My mother hospitalised and expired on 30-07-18. I am the younger son spent total medical expenses of Rs. 2,10,000 for my mother treatment (Rs. 1,30,000/- through my cashless insurance) but my Elder brother has not shared any amount and when I am asking to give half of the amount, he is saying that since my insurer has sanctioned "cashless claim" & without his acceptance I have taken mother to hospital, he is not willing to share any of mother medical expenses (I alone paid the premium amount). When I am trying to sell my house land property and recover his half amount, he is saying that I was not allowed to sell that land also since it was purchased by mother and father. My elder brother has taken my mother jewellery also. Kindly help me, whether I am having right to recover half of my mother medical expenses from my Elder brother or not ? We divided 20 years before when my father was alive and signed by 10 persons on a white paper agreement. Regards,

File the partition suit as per agreement as narrated by you and also claim the share in jewellery. So far mother hospital bill is concerned,if it is a part of the agreement then can be claimed otherwise difficult.
