Since it is a civil case you are anyways not required to appear before the court on every date. Your personal presence in the court is required only at the stage of recording of evidence, whereas on all other hearings the presence of your lawyer shall suffice. Be that as it may, you are free to execute a registered GPA in favour of your mother to authorize her to appear in the court on your behalf.

If the property is being divided by the court then the decree of the court will be the charter of rights. After the decree is drawn up the parties can apply for mutation. Your mother is free to act for and on your behalf if you execute a GPA in her favour.

as we are going to divide the proporty via court i hope it will be registed deed of partition. in such a case my mother can act on behalf of me in addtion to her share part. am i right sir?

If all shareholders agree for amicable partition then the partition deed can be drawn as per the conditions agreed and get it registered, this will help to avoid court and prolonged case.

Your mother on the basis of registered power of attorney deed, can very well represent you everywhere she has been authorised in the deed.
