Ref: ARMED FORCES TRIBUNAL, REGIONAL BENCH CHANDIGARH ATCHANDIMANDIR -.- OA 16 of 2015 6th Jul 2023
21 May 2024 — - An unmarried son or an unmarried or widowed or divorced daughter, except a disabled son or daughter shall become ineligible for family pension
If the child of a Govt. servant is suffering from any disability of mind or is physically disabled so as to render him or her unable to earn a living even after attaining the age of 25 years, the family pension shall be payable to such son or daughter for life.
A disabled child may be eligible for family pension provided he/she fulfils all eligibility conditions at the time of death/ineligibility of her parents and on the date her turn to receive family pension comes.
Non-intimation of physical/mental handicap doesnot make a child ineligible for family pension.
A disability certificate issued after the death of the employee/pensioner or his/her spouse for a disability which existed before their death may be accepted.

You need not quote any citatin if your request is covered undeer existing law.
Family pension is admissible to divorced / widow / unmarried daughter. If she is not having income above Rs 9000pm and dependent upon the pensioner.
The Provision is similary in CCS(Pension) Rules, Pensrion rules for Army, Navy, Air Force and state Govts and even EPFO pensioners.
