What were the rules before
According to the rules before the change, there is a provision of pension to his wife after the death of a government employee. After the death of the wife, no other family member is given a pension. If the victim has children in the house and none of them are mentally or physically competent, then there is no provision of pension in any way, which makes it difficult for the differently-abled dependents to feed.
