the youngest daughter is only entitled to a share of the property and for that you need to file a suit for partition of the property and also seek restraint orders against the youngest daughter restraining her from disposing off the property or creating any third party interest. in case you are settled abroad, you need not appear in india and the suit may be filed through an attorney.
