Loan liability cannot bar statutory family pension or compassionate appointment under CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972 | Post-death benefits for fire service personnel : Tripura HC

The Tripura High Court ordered the State to release the widow's statutory family pension and grant a compassionate appointment to the deceased fireman's daughter, rejecting the claim that the deceased's loan liability could offset post-death benefits. This ruling secures full entitlement for dependents of government employees killed in service.
