IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.9063 of 2011. 1.The Union Of India through the Assistant Personal Officer, Eastern Railway, Jamalpur. 2.The Chief Factory Manager, Eastern Railway, Jamalpur. .Petitioners. Versus Shahnaz Begum wife of Late Akil Ahmad, resident of village Mubarak Chak, P.O. Bank, P.S.Muffasil, District Munger … Respondent. ----------- 3. 12.10.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and perused the impugned order of the Central Administrative Tribunal dated 16th December 2010 whereby O.A.No. 68 of 2010 has been allowed with certain directions and observations. The concern of the petitioners is that as per the enquiry made by the Railway authorities, the deceased employee had earlier married another woman who separated long back and from that marriage, there are two sons, both major who may claim death cum-retiral benefits which have been ordered by the Tribunal to be given to the respondent Sahnaz Begum, who is shown in the official records as the only wife of the deceased employee. The said enquiry report does not show whether there was a divorce with the first wife or not. However, it 2 clearly shows that there was permanent separation and the deceased employee married the respondent subsequently. The Official record shows the respondent and her 2 sons to be the nominees. In the facts of the case, the Tribunal has taken the correct view and we are in agreement that as per rules, the family pension has been rightly awarded to the only living wife. So far other death cum-retiral benefits are concerned, the Tribunal has taken the necessary precaution by way of direction for indemnity bond and it goes without saying that if the alleged heirs of the alleged first wife want to claim share in the death cm-retiral benefits, they will have to seek relief through proper civil proceeding in accordance with law. We find no reason to interfere in the matter. The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed. Jay/ ( Shiva Kirti Singh,J ) (Shivaji Pandey, J)
