First we have to see whether the relinquishment deed is registered or not. If the same is just notarized then it doesn't carry any value. Any which way a suit for declaration can be filed against your mother and sister for cancellation of the aforesaid deed on various grounds which can be ascertained later. But filing of a suit is necessary otherwise you have no other right.

A Relinquishment deed can only be cancelled by either of the following;-

1. Registration of a Cancellation Deed to be executed between the one who relinquished the property and the person in whose favour it was relinquished,

2. Fling a suit for cancellation with the plea that the party who relinquished the share did not give an unequivocal consent for the relinquishment and the same was obtained by the other party through fraudulent or deceitful means

Hello. I regret to inform that property once relinquished can't be cancelled. However you can file suit for setting aside the deed if you can prove that the same was executed under force or coercion. If the relinquishment deed was registered, the property when relinquished cannot be claimed back on any grounds, no personal or sympathetic grounds would find favour.
