Can anyone advise regarding opting for two family pensions?
One person is employed in the central government, where he has served for 12 years and is eligible for a pension that has already started from the central government. Subsequently, he was permanently absorbed in a public sector undertaking. After some years, a pension scheme was initiated in that PSU, and he became eligible to receive a pension from that PSU as well.
Can anybody tell me if he can avail both pensions, one from the central government and another from the PSU?

Dear Randhir,
Yes, he is eligible to receive two pensions. It is perfectly correct. However, what I did not understand is this: If that person worked in the central government for 12 years, then how did he become eligible to draw a pension? The minimum pensionable service is 20 years for central government employees. This rule of pensionable service is waived off only for defense and a few other employees.
The definition of the word "pension" is "a fixed amount, other than wages, paid at regular intervals to a person or to the person's surviving dependants in consideration of past services, age, merit, poverty, injury, or loss sustained," etc.
In the above definition, please concentrate on the phrase "in consideration of past services." For the case at hand, the employee is eligible for a pension from two different government agencies "in consideration of past services."
Ok...

Hi Dinesh,
Thank you for replying to me.
In the past, a regular employee of the Central Government who has completed more than 10 years of service is eligible for a pension. Even a quasi-permanent employee who has completed more than 10 years is entitled to a pension, as per the decision of the Supreme Court.

I took voluntary retirement from State Government Service and joined a central government institute. Initially, I was paid my full salary along with full pension. However, after an AG audit, my pension is now being deducted from my salary. Is this adjustment correct? What steps should I take moving forward? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Dear Sir,
My mother is receiving my father's pension amounting to Rs. 500.00 per month. My father used to work for a private company. Now, my mother will receive my father's pension (after my mother's death) as she is a widow, and according to government law, she is eligible to receive the pension.
My question is, can she receive two pensions: her husband's pension and her father's pension?

I want to ask that my mother is taking her pension and my father is receiving family pension. I want to know if I can use the same Aadhar card for both banks, so we are eligible to receive both pensions. However, the issue is that the states for the pensions are different.
Thank you.

My aunt is a widow, and she receives a pension after the death of her husband (a military man). Is she eligible for the state widow pension scheme? Can she receive two pensions at the same time, one from the state and another regular one?

Dear Sir,
My father was a central government employee. He took VRS and some years later he passed away. After that, my mother started receiving my father's family pension from the central government. She completed her service in the state government, and now she is receiving her own pension from the state government. Is she eligible for both pensions, and can she submit her Aadhar card to both banks? I mean, the family pension bank and her pension bank. Please advise.

Hello Sir,
My mother is receiving a family pension from my Father, who passed away during his tenure as a school teacher in High School. On that basis, she inherited my Father's job and was appointed as a school teacher in a Middle school. Upon joining the school, the family pension was reduced by half as per government regulations. She is now entitled to receive her own pension after retirement.
My question is: Can she receive both pensions simultaneously? If not, is it possible to transfer my Father's family pension from my mother's name (as the sole nominee) to her son's name?
Please note that both pensions are from the state government in Jharkhand.
Thanks and Best Regards,

Husband and wife both are working in government jobs. After the death of the husband, his wife is receiving a pension. Now that the woman has retired from her government job, she is also receiving a pension.
Is it possible that she is receiving two pensions? One pension is from after the death of her husband, and the second is from her retirement.
