A.Dear Client
It seems that you are talking about the ancestral property herein and if that may be then your father certainly has the right in the same. To exercise his rights your father is required to file a partition suit and get the property divided.
It is also suggested to send a legal notice to your cousin before filing a case in civil court.

A.Dear Client,
Regardless of the character of the property, whether it is an ancestral property or self-acquired property, on the demise of its owners intestate i.e, without a will, all the servicing legal heirs are entitled to an equal share in the said property following the Hindu law of inheritance or succession. In the given scenario, you need to file a civil suit for a declaration under Sec.34 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963 before the competent Civil Court seeking an injunction under Order 39 Rule 1 & 2 CPC read with Section 151 of CPC requesting the Court to exercise its inherent power to do justice. Additionally, you need to file a partition suit before the Civil Court seeking partition of the said undivided property. Reach out to an Advocate for guidance and support.

A.Dear Client,
According to the law of inheritance, property that is undivided for at least four generations constitutes an ancestral property and the coparceners have an equal share in it. In case of a dispute in the joint family property, you can file a suit before the jurisdictional civil court and seek a partition decree. If required, you can consult an advocate for advice and assistance in the matter.
Hope it helps.
Thank you.
