Hello,
If your father 's property s ancestral property then all children from both first and second wife will get share equally along with second wife.
The law is all wife will get one share they will have to divide equally in it and all children will get equal share over the property.
If the property s self acquired then your father can gift or write Will to whoever he wish to.
