according to her, is the ancestral property of respondent Nos.4 to 6

and forms the subject matter of the present dispute. Owing to

strained marital relations, respondent Nos.4 and 5 along with

respondent No.6 allegedly left the said house in the year 2013 and

shifted to the residence of their elder son at Old Bowenpally, leaving

the petitioner in possession of the property. Respondent No.6
