23-Dec-2023 (In Property Law)
I am hindu & from Telangana, my father has ancestral property and he died in April,2005 before the amendment came in to force, my father being job less in his entire life, since i & my brothers took care of my sisters in their education, living expenses & performed their marriages & gave dowry etc, now we transferred property on our brothers name and got pass books & etc, now these sisters came for fighting tht they have a share and they want money, thy never took care of my father or mother in terms of living expenses, their medical treatment expenses & etc only we brothers took care of all, now My question is why we should share our property to our sisters? since childhood onwards we spent our hard earned money on them till date, what will the result if they file a case in court like High court or in supreme court ?
even though your father died before the commencement of the central amendment to the hindu succession act in the unified andhra pradesh from 1987 onwards the women is considered as the share holder of the joint family property in andhra pradesh unified

As per state amendment Act 1985, a women have a right to ask for share in joint family property. But if the property partitioned though registered deed before Act came into force and women got married before Act came into force she cannot demand for partition. From 1985 in Andhrapradesh daughter have given a right to ask partition. Your father is died in 2005 as such they eligible to demand their share joint family properties
