It depends on several factors as-
1-Name of wife in service record.
2-What formalities department is asking for the payment, succession certificate etc.
3- what is the legal status of second widow.

The inheritance is based on the available documents

Class I legal heirs of the deceased are wife, chidlren and mother.
Sisters are not the class I legal heirs. widow sister is the legal heir of her deceased husband.

Mr. raju view is correct.It is better for that person he should widhraw maximum benifits and ask a loan from department,execute a will about other property and left some blank cheque for his sister and mother.
