Sir,
I am son of a retired Indian Army Person. My father was also served as an armed guard in Central Bank of India for approx 26 yrs after retirement from army. My father had been passed away in the harness on 2nd Dec 2011 due to internal body organ failure. My father was drawing army pension.
We have received all the full and final from Bank except Bank contribution in Provident Fund in deceased employee account. When I asked about it then Bank Manager told and shown me that your father had chosen Regular pension scheme option rather than compound amount after retirement. So your mother can have Bank pension only if she presents a proof in written from Army pension department that deceased person’s pension has been stopped. (According to Bank Manager a Widow can have only one pension as per Indian Government Rule). Finally my mother have chosen Army Pension and had to drop Bank Pension.
Now, I am very confused about few questions that arising in my mind are as under:-
1) Will my mother can get the Bank Contribution in PF in deceased employee account as she is not getting pension from Bank Side?
2) What if my father would have chosen Compound Amount after retirement Option rather than Regular pension Scheme Option?
Pls. Give your precious advise on above issues & if there is any chance of getting Bank Contribution?
In this hours of grief your precious advice will be a great help.
I will be very thankful to you & waiting for your kind reply.
