HON'BLE JUSTICE BIVAS PATTANAYAK

The High Court of Calcutta allowed the widow's writ petition seeking family pension by directing her to refund the government's share of the Contributory Provident Fund with interest and additional interest. The court held that since the deceased husband had exercised an option under ROPA 1990, no fresh option was required, and upon payment of the calculated refund amount, the pension sanctioning authority must verify and process the pension papers for issuance of the Pension Payment Order, with pension to be paid from the next date of the husband's retirement.
