Rule 50 of the Central Civil Service (Pension) Rules, 2021 deals with payment of family pension on death of a Government servant/pensioner.

In accordance with Rule 50(8) of the Central Civil Service (Pension) Rules, 2021, on death of a Government servant/pensioner, family pension is payable to the widow or widower upto the date of death or re-marriage, whichever is earlier.

    My Brother in law was a Defense personnel and reemployed in A Govt. autonomous body. He opted for the family pension from the defense office and filled the option form in his new Civil body. But the new rule was formulated by DoPT and modified in 2021 that Dual family pension will be available to his wife. But unfortunately , he overlooked the DoPPt circular and did not filled up any form for 2nd family pension. Nw, recently in 2024, he died and his wife i.e. my sister has applied for the 2nd family pension to the new organization from where he retired. He was getting the pension by himself before his death. But the Administration of the last Civil body rejected the appeal on the plea that he has not applied before his death. But it is seen that the appeal of my sister is genuine and it can not be rejected as it was overlooked by the employee.
    Kindly suggest your views.
