Whether the daughter is legitimate or illigetimate, but she is the daughter to your father. If the property of your father is acquired from ancestors, then the daughter has right to claim over the property. If the property is the self acquired property by your father, then no one can right to claim over the self acquired property of your father. The father has absolute right to do according to his will and wish.
