Dear Madam, certainly you have right over your ancestral properties, to claim your ancestral properties, you have to file partition suit against your Mother, brother and sister before competent court.

Married or Unmarried girl is having equal share in thw ancestral property also. As such the properry was devolved by your father as a legal heir of his ancestors. Hence the girl is having a equal share as of a son in the property.

Hi,
This is M.A RAHEEM KHAN Advocate, @ lawratio.com

As per the law sons and Daughters have share in their ancestral property, if you are Hindu as per Hindu law both sons and Daughters have equal share in their ancestral property.
