honorable sir, my Girl Friend is 25 year old. She lost her father 3 years back. Her step mother is now the pension holder of her father. She is so cruel that in case of for any simple house hold need my GF has to fight for money. I know that pension, stipends are not transferable, because I am also last year LAW student. My question is that is there any provisions for an unmarried mature daughter, who can not live on her own? Please reply!

It is the duty of the father to maintain his unmarried daughter till she gets married. As the girl's father is no more, I think she can fight for her maintenance money from the father's pension, legally.

Hi Amar your friend is entitled to receive share in the family pension of her father, she has also same rights to receive share from the family pension as like her step mother. If her step mother refused to give some amount to her your friend would approach the concerned department authorities of her father. A female child is also entitled to receive family pension till her marriage.
