AN APPEAL TO OUR VETERAN BROTHERS.
IMPORTANCE OF HAVING JOINT ACCOUNT IN BANKS WITH SPOUSE FOR PENSION
IMPORTANCE OF HAVING JOINT ACCOUNT WITH SPOUSE FOR PENSION.
We had, Time and again advised our veterans to convert the existing Pension account in to JOINT ACCOUNT with their spouse .
For this , JOINT NOTIFICATION should have been published. ppo LIKE S/JN / 12347/2026
Now, for the last few months , more than 3 veterans have died. All of them were having only SINGLE account.
Though the JOINT NOTIFICATION was there, due to this single a/c , their SPOUSE have to open, Bank account for the credit of their pension. Here, they have to establish the genuineness, that is , wife of so and so.
More over, they have to submit Documents like Form 14, Non-Marriage certificate, Widowhood, Declaration, Descriptive Roll, Aadhar and PAN card etc.
If there had been Joint account, only a written intimation along with death certificate will be enough to change over to Family pension.
Now, the poor WIDOW has to run, pillar to post for getting her pension.
It may take more than 3 to 6 months time to get the pension and the widow has to face the financial hardship for running the family.
All our Ex-Servicemen Associations are once again requested to advise our veterans in their areas suitably to have JOINT ACCOUNT with their spouse.

KNOW ABOUT WAR WIDOWS POSITION
Dear Veteran Brothers,
Please go through this Article and express your views and suggestions.
Who are called WAR WIDOWS?
We all know that, the widows of soldiers who died in War or War like activities while in service are called WAR WIDOWS.
They are granted with Liberalised Family pension./ It is OK.
But in case of Widows of War injured veterans –died after discharge – how they are called , whether they are called as War widows or normal widows. This is the question.
Practically they are called as normal widows only. E.g One Sep V.Kandan ( 8002935) of Pioneer RO , lost his Hand during 1962 War. He was boarded out with WAR injury Pension D/742/1972 AND later D/BC/6033/2002. He served for 2 yrs only. He died . His wife is sanctioned with Ordinary Normal pension only.
2. One Nb.Sub. A. Savariraj ( JC 151186M ) of MRC Records lost both EYES during land Mine blast in IPK in Sri Lanka. He was also boarded out with War injury pension. PPO S/034122/1988 AND 223198800404.
He also died .HIS WIFE ALSO SANCTIONED WITH NORMAL FAMILY PENSION.
There are so many cases like this.
Now , we feel that both the type of widows may be treated as WAR WIDOW .Think , their type of pension may vary. First case, no doubt- Liberalised Family pension. But the other type may be granted as Special Family pension or at least ENHANCED RATE OF FAMILY PENSION till their life. Or their Qualifying service may be treated as if they have served for full term say 33 yrs
If they are given Normal family pension, then there is no difference between the normal ( discharged deceased ) families and widows of War injured pensioners,
All our learned veterans are requested to think over and try to put forward this case of War Widows to authorities when ever possible.
