Property dispute acquired by elder brother


19-May-2025 (In Property Law)
I acquired property solely through my earnings while supporting my family in a joint setup. Initially my intention was to share it with my brothers based on their needs. However, post their marriages, they have changed and are not supporting our parents' medical and other essential needs. Now, our parents also wish to exclude them from ancestral property. Can my younger brother legally claim a share in the property I acquired independently during our joint family period?
