u have purchased the land from a vendor for consideration and a complete sale deed executed in the year 2011 itself and the 1st son did not claim from his brother till he was alive and so he cannot claim it from u because it's a settlement deed by which you have executed a sale deed and therefore he can only threaten you

There is no need for the first son's signature in the settlement deed. If it is duly registered, it is legally valid. In any case, any claim by the first son after more than 30 years now is time barred.
