You would be entitlted the receive family pension and arrers of her unpaid pay for her duty period, Leave encashment.
If your wife had already made any nomination in your favour for Gratuity, Provident Fund, Government Employees Insutance Fund, etc, you would also be entitled to claim that also. If she had made nomination in favour of any other person, only that person can claim such amounts. Otherwise, being a legal heir, you can claim such amounts also.
