Ours is an ancestral property now held by my older uncle who is a bachelor. Recently, he executed a Will and wished to share the property with both his younger brothers which include my father. The other brother who never bothered all these years wants a share now. How do we avoid giving him the share he does not deserve?

If the property is ancestral property, it will belong to all the coparceners. This will include your uncle, your father, the elder uncle and their respective family members, including the daughters. Your uncle who wishes to bequeath the property by a Will can only bequeath his share in the ancestral property. Your father and the other uncle will also have a share in the ancestral property irrespective of his deserving it or not.
