Dear sir, Your case is complicated matter. It is informed that your grandfather divorced 40 years ago without any legal documentary proof and settled property to your grandmother with a word on registered documents. In such circumstances, there is no valid divorce under law with grandmother, the marriage with second wife is void and not valid under law, as such, it cannot be demanded that second wife also have rights on property which was settled to first wife since second wife has no rights on first wife property. you can approach Advocate for better legal advice for appropriate relief under Law.

Your question is not clear. Whether the first wife is alive or not? Further how your grandfather delivered the property tot he diversed your grandmother? Please clarify that at the time of taking divorce he mentioned the same in the divorce petition or not? If he mentioned the same in the divorce petition then the second wife cannot claim and your grandfather cannot take back the right of transfer of the property
