Widowed/Divorced/Unmarried daughters of railway pensioners who are in receipt of family pension

were already included as dependents when the employee opted for RELHS facility as per Para 612A of
IRMM i.e. on his date of retirement or death as the case may be, would get medical facility even after
demise of both the primary RELHS card holder and spouse, provided the dependent
Widowed/Divorced/Unmarried daughters satisfies all the conditions laid down for being dependent,
Therefore, such dependents would be eligible for FMA on fulfillment of all the terms and conditions
laid down for grant of FMA vide Board's letter dated 15,09.2009(RBE No. 168/2009). This is in
supersession of Board's letter No, PC-V/2011/A/Med/1 dated 07.07.2014.
