05-Jun-2023 (In Property Law)
I joined indian airforce in 1983 and bought a land in 1987 my younger brother was 20 at that time, i build a house and asked my mother to live their. Brother went for his career and left hometown. I have given all medical facilities to my mom, and she has pension though. Now my brother nd mother are claiming their share in my property. My brother is a music teacher, he takes home tuitions, nd does musical shows approx every day. He has a good source of income and has a self owned 1 bhk flat where my mother lives with his family. Can my mother and brother claim in my property?

If the money used by you to purchase the property was your own money and solely earned by you, then nobody can claim the share in the property.
As you have also taken care of your Mother as dutiful son, the Courts will consider your efforts and genuineness.

Dear querist, from what I understand from the query is, that you have purchased a property from your own income and the title documents should bear your ownership rights. Since your mother and brother have not contributed any amount for purchasing the land or building the house upon the land, then they can not claim any rights in the property owned by you and are mere gratituous licensee and can be evicted by you if you want

No they cannot claim a share in your self acquired property. Kindly keep that property in your physical possession and symbolic possession in order to avoid any foul play by your brother. For any further clarification kindly book a consultancy call.
