Subject: REVISION OF BASIC PAY SCALES AND FRINGE BENEFITS OF CIVIL EMPLOYEES (BS 1-22) OF PUNJAB GOVERNMENT (1994)
I am directed to refer to para-8(b) of this department’s circular letter No. FD-PC-2-2/94 dated 18.07.1994 regarding grant of family pension to dependent disabled/retarded children for life without any age limit w.e.f. 01.06.1994 and to say that the following queries have been clarified by the Finance Division:
Queries
- Whether the word ‘dependents’ includes all the relatives or it is only meant for children.
- Whether the comma(,) after the word ‘dependents’ has been erroneously typed in para-8 and may, be read as ‘dependents retarded and incapacitated children’ which may cover the condition (b) of the said para-8.
Clarifications
- The word ‘dependent’ does not include all the relatives but it is only meant for children.
- The comma(,) after the word dependents in para-8 has been erroneously typed and may be read as ‘dependent retarded and incapacitated children’.
