Basically the main question is had the brother made the promises in paper or rather is there a mutual understanding on paper basis which the sister can say that there was a breach of agreed terms. Suggest you may kindly have a tele discussion on the point as there are plenty of ifs and buts

Whether the affidavit can be revoked depends upon its nature and whether any transfer of property has already been completed on its basis. If the sisters merely executed an affidavit/NOC based on certain assurances given by the brother, and those assurances were not honoured, they may challenge the transaction and seek appropriate legal remedies. However, if a registered release deed, relinquishment deed, gift deed, or any other registered document has already been executed and acted upon, cancellation is not automatic and may require proceedings before a competent civil court on grounds such as fraud, misrepresentation, undue influence, or breach of conditions. Kindly share copies of the affidavit and the property transfer documents for a proper legal opinion on the available remedies.

An affidavit alone may be revoked if no registered transfer has occurred. If property is already transferred, sisters may challenge it in court on grounds of fraud, misrepresentation or breach of promise.
