Issues involved: Eligibility of minor daughter for family pension after petitioner's remarriage and non-receipt of dues.
In the present case, the petitioner's husband, a Constable in the Delhi Police, passed away while in service, resulting in the sanction of family pension and DCRG to the petitioner. Subsequently, the petitioner remarried, making her ineligible for continued pension payments. However, the petitioner asserts that her minor daughter is entitled to receive family pension, and she claims that the dues have not been paid. The 2nd respondent acknowledged the daughter's eligibility for family pension but highlighted the need for certain formalities to be completed. The court emphasized that if the required formalities are not fulfilled, the authorities cannot be blamed for the non-payment of family pension to the deceased's daughter. Consequently, the court directed the petitioner to complete the necessary formalities promptly to facilitate the disbursement of family pension along with arrears to her minor daughter within eight weeks of lodging the claim. Thus, the writ petition was disposed of accordingly.
