Respected Sir,
Re: Request for issue of SOP regarding the grant of 2 family pensions to the family of deceased retired exservicemen of LIC.
➢ We have come across several cases in the entire country, where the family pension to the family
of retired and deceased ex-servicemen of LIC, was denied with a wrong understanding that such
families are eligible to get only one family pension.
➢ Need is felt that, the staff working in the P&IR Dept & OS/Pension Dept in Divisional/Zonal Offices
is to be sensitised and kept abreast of the latest position governing the dual family pension.
➢ You may be surprised to know that even RM (E&OS) in one of the Zonal Offices was unaware that
2 family pensions are available to the families of deceased retired ex-servicemen of LICI! God save
our families of deceased ex-servicemen of LIC!
➢ With the timely intervention of the office bearers of NOIP (BMS) and submission of relevant
circulars of GOI and LIC, by us, RM (E&OS) started the process of granting family pension in one
such case.
➢ In view of this grave situation, we, as a service organization, who are dedicated to cater to the
various needs of pensioners and family pensioners in the whole country, thought of bringing the
matter to your kind information and knowledge and requesting you to remedy the situation, by
bringing out SOP (Standard Operating Procedure).
➢ We implore upon you to go through the attached note and take immediate steps to release the
SOP to all the operating offices in the country and oblige.
We fervently hope that necessary action would be initiated at your end, Sir.
With thanks and regards,
Encl: As above
General Secretary
