Read your query and my answer to you is, after the death of your father you and your brothers got their shares and from your share you purchased a land, now they are claiming right in your property which they cannot because it is your self acquired property and they legally have no right over it.

Sir
As per law he can't get the share in your self acquired property. But you have to prove that this land is purchased by you with your own assets and the father money is equally divided in shares so that money is your share only. For safer side you must file caveat in court so that your brother doesn't get stay on your land.
