Now she made a registered will in favor of her sons from the second relation. These also gets a share from their father's agricultural land. My father has the maximum land which allowed by Uttar Pradesh sealing act . We are two adult brothers.

Dear Sir,

The agricultural land appearing in your grandmother's name which she inherited from your father can only be willed by her to you and your brother. Your grandmother certainly cannot will the agricultural land in the name of her children from another man, simply because the land originally belonged to your father. You should challenge the Will and claim your right to the land.

Regards,
