A.All three of you have equal rights in the property left by your father.
If your father died intestate, then by operation of law, all three of you will be entitled to 1/3rd share each.
If they want to sell the property, let them offer it to you, i.e., RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL to be given to you, if you refuse, then then they can sell their share to outsiders.
NOTE:
Better you take their share by offering to take it, by way of release / relinquishment / Gift etc.
Whatever, mode of transfer you opt, the same has to be registered by paying appropriate stamp duty and registration charges.
