Soldiers Who Get Re-employed to Enjoy Special Family Pension

Families of armed forces pensioners who get re-employed after retiring from service will now receive a special family pension from the government. The official statement from the Defence Ministry says that the families will be allowed to draw a family pension from the military side apart from any kind of pension that is authorized by the government. At present, the families are allowed to draw simple pension either from the civil side or military side, whichever is more advantageous to them.
