A Punjab woman, the second wife of a deceased government employee, has won a legal battle for her full family pension. The High Court ruled she is entitled to 100% of the pension, rejecting the state's claim to cap it at 50%. The court found the state's interpretation of rules was incorrect, as she was the sole surviving widow.
