Hi, General Power of Attorney is an instrument to act on behalf of the Principal so even though the Power of Attorney registered it can be cancelled at any time by the principal.

2. As per as my knowledge is concerned there is no such Supreme Court ruling that registered GPA may be converted into Sale deed.

3. Principal is the absolute owner of the property and he has given Power of Attorney to sell the property and if he sold the property on behalf of the principal then it becomes valid sale deed and if the Principal has power to cancel the GPA at any time.

The term "registered two properties in sister" in unclear for the reason it is unclear whether it was by way of sale/gift/GPA ?
Though a GPA can be revoked at any time by the principal.
As such, Your father can challenge the prior registration before a court of law on certain grounds. Secondly, you have a right to protect your possession till the ascertainment of rights by the court.
