How can legal heirs claim for share in a property?

Question asked from Mr. Harsh Singh, India:

My father died in January’2010 without any will. We are 3 brothers (all married, I am a son), 4 sisters (2-unmarried, all aged above 40) and mother. Father had two houses in two different states. Our family is residing in one house. There are two issues: (i) Mother and my two elder brothers do not want to share property with me and sisters. They also plan to dis-locate two un-married sisters from my father’s house. In this situation: what are our legal options? What are the steps we should take to ensure that our property is safe and sisters are not evicted from there? (ii) The second house is vacant for last 6-7 years. The eldest brother plans to move into that house and occupy it without any-body’s consent. What steps we must take to stop this?

Thanks
Harsh Singh
