My relative, an army widow, is facing difficulties in getting her pension. Her late husband served in the army and had two marriages. His first wife passed away after a few years, and he remarried. He retired in November and passed away in July. Now, his second wife, who has a son, is trying to claim the pension but the army offices are refusing, citing a rule against plural marriages. His first wife had three daughters, two of whom are married. The youngest daughter is under 18 and can’t get married yet. The army offices are suggesting the pension be given to the stepdaughter and transferred to the second wife after her marriage or when she turns 25. Is there any way the pension can be directly transferred to the second wife?
