he did not complete 20 years and resigned. There was no VR no medical discharge. He has no claim for pension. Not even worth the cost of stationary you will spend

Dear sir,
I heard if somebody complete 10 years, they are eligible to get pension.
Please advice.
Thanks & Regards,

Dear Ajayan,

You have correctly heard that a Government servant becomes eligible for pension if he renders 10 years of more of service. BUT pension is admissible on retirement on attaining the age of retirement or on voluntary retirement (VRS) after 20 years of service, NOT on resignation.

There is a difference between retirement and resignation. On resignation from Government service, all the sevice benefits are forfieted irrespective of number of years of service rendered on the date of retirement. Hence NO PENSION is permissible on resignation.

However, had your father-in-law waited for 3 more years, he could have sought voluntary retirement with a three months notice for voluntary retirement, as pension is permissible after 20 years of service in the case of VRS.

well elaborated by Mr Dhingra.

I would further add that even these 20 years need to be regular service )not ad-hoc/daily wager)and one should have drawn salary for 240 months (7300 days) (no without pay leave/dies-non etc)
