casestatus.in Summary

Summary: The Supreme Court partially allowed PSEB's appeal, holding that while Ram Rakhi (the widowed sister of a deceased lineman) qualifies as a "family member" under the 1960 Punjab Civil Services Rules, she must still prove financial dependence on the deceased to claim family pension. The Court set aside the lower courts' decree granting family pension and remitted the matter to the trial court to determine whether Ram Rakhi was actually dependent on the deceased employee at the time of his death. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
