My father served in the Indian Army for 15 years and joined State Bank of India as an armed guard in 1986 after his retirement. Sadly, he was dismissed from the bank in 1995 due to forgery and was also imprisoned. Since then, he hasn’t received any pension or benefits from the bank. We only received his PF money, about ₹60,000. We didn’t know much about these matters at that time. Is there any possibility for him to get his pension back? We repaid ₹40,000 to the bank after the forgery incident.

It is unlikely your father can get his pension back. Dismissal for misconduct, particularly involving criminal activity like forgery, usually results in forfeiture of pension benefits under bank regulations and Indian law. While you repaid some of the amount, this may not be sufficient to overturn the dismissal and reinstate his pension.
