Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in India

We are six brothers and two sisters. Our parents died long back. One sister married in 1960s and ther other sister married in 1980s. We have an ancestral property in the state of Orissa. As I understand, after the amendment of rules in 2005, the married daughters do not have any right over the ancestral property, who married prior to 2005. Please confirm. If we dispose of the property, the married two daughters signature or consent is not needed. Please confirm.

No it is not true. You would be needing the consent of your both sisters to sell the property.
