You can get the property partitioned through a civil court. Before that you have to send a notice to all the persons who have lawful right in the property. In case you need any assistance you may contact me

What about your grandmother? She is also a legal heir, if alive.

The diary noting is of no legal significance. In the absence of any Will, the property is jointly vested with all the legal heirs. The only legal option to overcome the unwillingness of your sister is to file a partition suit - but the final decree may take time. The matter could be expedited by referring to mediation or settlement through Adalat.
