If your father has not left any will and u are 4 siblings , then you are entitled to 1/4 share in the property. If your mother is alive then you are entitled to 1/5th share in the property.

Procedure to get the property is to file the suit for partition.
For further dicussion pls tell me when your father expired

All sisters and brother have equal share in property of parents. You have to file suit for partition, declaration and possession of the property left by your father. If any person is not interested to have property then he can relinquish his share on the name of any other share holder.

If the property is ancestral and your father self acquired property then all legal heirs has right in his ancestral property. Since he is no more,being a daughter certainly you have share in your ancestral property as per law of succession and for this purpose you have to file suit in the competent court of jurisdiction.
