7th pay commission: There are many such rules related to family pension of government employees, which people do not know much about. However, a special initiative has been taken by the Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare of the Central Government. Under this, information about 75 important rules related to family pension is being given. One of these rules is related to the child born after the death of the employee.
What is the rule: According to the rule, a child born after the death of a government employee is also entitled to family pension. If a government employee has retired and a child is born after his death, then he is also eligible for family pension.
Method of claim: The method of claiming family pension has also been told by the government. If a serving Government servant dies, then along with the death certificate for family pension, the Head of Office has to submit his claim.
In the case of a minor child or a mentally retarded child, his/her guardian can submit this claim. Apart from this, if a government employee has made a nominee, then he can also claim family pension for the child.
