The Pension amount cannot be attached by anyone i.e. to say that none,including a court, can order the employer to deposit the pension amt.to a creditor in discharge of a debt.However, this rule does not apply to the Savings Bank A/C. just because the pension amt. is being deposited in that A/C.

Normally a pensioner's account is blocked only in case of non submission of Life Certificate. Please check up with the bankers.
