Learned state counsel submits that as per Clause 3 (d) (II) of Ex-gratia Rules, 2003, petitioner is not entitled to family pension because it specifically provides that dependents of the deceased employee cannot be considered for appointment as well as for the grant of 2.5 lacs as CFA if deceased had served the Govt. department for less than three years.
