The applicant submitted that gratuity was paid to her at the time of death and subsequently, her elder son Brij Mohan was appointed on compassionate ground as a Group-D employee by the respondent-Railway on pay scale of Rs 2550-3200.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The grievance of the applicant was that in spite of repeated representations since 1983,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">for directions to grant family pension, leave encashment, insurance, GPF, death-cum- retirement benefits along with arrears of family pension, the same had not been released by the respondent. Reliance was placed by the applicant on the decision of Supreme Court in <em>Prabhavati Devi v. Union of India<\/em>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/1w5R8WeW\">(1996) 7 SCC 27<\/a>, and on the following rule:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>\u201c<strong>75.

Since the husband of the applicant was unscreened, his services could not be treated as a Substitute or permanent and as such, applicant was not entitled to any of the benefit sought in the OA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Bench observed that the total service from 18-12-1972 to 28-07-1983 out of which the service as an authorised scale employee was from 01-04-1974 to 28-07-1983 which was a period more than 9 years as against one year specified. Noticing further that according to the notification released by Assistant Personnel Officer-IV, Delhi Division, the deceased had acquired the status of a substitute, the Bench opined that under such conditions substitute should be accorded all the rights and privileges as may be admissible to a temporary Railway servants from time to time on completion of six months continuous service.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Relying on <em>Prabhavati Devi\u2019s case<\/em>, which was similarly placed as that of the applicant, the Bench said the applicant could not be denied the benefit of family pension and other retiral dues as applicable to a temporary Railway servant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hence, the respondents were directed to allow family pension and other terminal dues as per rules with arrears to be paid within a period of eight weeks. It was further clarified that the arrears for the period prior to 23-05-2018 should not carry any interest. The arrears which were due as of 23-05-2018 would carry interest at 6% p.a. w.e.f. 23-05-2018.[Kamla Devi v. Union of India, O.A.
