India, Oct. 5 -- The Government of India has issued a release:
An exemplary case of Ms. Chander Kanta Jally, whose husband made the supreme sacrifice in 1973. She was sanctioned Liberalised Family Pension. However, due to certain reasons, the family pension paid to her was lower than the amount to which she was entitled. She became aware of this and approached various forums. During the Pension Adalat, Sh. Jaswinder Jally, her son, attended through video conferencing from Chandigarh and presented the grievance on behalf of his mother before the Hon'ble MoS (PP). The case was discussed at length. Subsequently, family pension arrears amounting to Rs. 2.02 crore were released.
Another case involving Ms. Damyanti Sinha, with the help of the Pension Adalat, pensionary benefits of more than Rs. 72 lakh were released.
Both these cases involved super-senior family pensioners.
