FAMILY PENSION

Fwd by Dr. Brig VA Narayanan
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Order has already been issued, in the case of civilian pensioners, regarding how to tackle the cases of family pensioners aged more than 80yrs whose date of birth is not recorded.PAN cards, CGHS Cards, Pass-port, Driving license, Matriculation Certificate - Viz whatever proof of reasonably trustworthy nature (My interpretation) would enable payment of enhanced pension. Even the Voter's Card is good enough. The relevant order is No.38/37/08-P&PW(A) dated 21 May, 2009 issued by the Min of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions. Pension Disbursing Authorities ( Banks paying the pension) are to act on this immediately. Similar order should have been issued in respect of Armed Forces ; However, as usual, it may take its own time in the absence of 'Mai-Baap' for ESM community.

Due to insuficient knowledge of the technique, although I have downloaded the letter, unable to cut& paste the same; Some expert may kindly do it.
