Family Pension Rules

November 18 , 2025 15 hrs 0 min 10 0
  • The Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare clarified that a daughter’s name must remain permanently in the family records of central government employees.
  • The clarification was issued to prevent disputes regarding pension eligibility after retirement or the marriage of the daughter.
  • Eligibility for family pension will be examined only after the death of the pensioner or existing family pensioner under applicable rules.
  • Rule 50 of the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules 2021 requires complete and updated family particulars, including spouse, children, parents, and disabled siblings.
  • Pension claims cannot be denied solely because a family member’s name was not recorded earlier if eligibility is otherwise established.
