If the property was self-acquired then they can do this otherwise if the property was ancestral or purchased from ancestral money then this will is illegal and you can challange it in court and prevent it from being executed.

Property which rightfully belongs to parents can be bequeathed to anyone provided that is not done due to some extraneous circumstances. But in any case each case is unique and it is difficult to answer such a query appropriately without having the facts at hand.

If the registered will is executed in favor of one daughter only, she will get the property for which will has been executed. However, this is applicable only for the self-acquired property of the parents. In the case of ancestral property, both the daughters have their claims.
