  1. I am central Govt pensioner and was drawing pension with medical allowance of Rs. 300 pm since March 2012. I intended joining CGHS and enquired abt the amt one time paymen to be made for becoming a CGHS beneficiary and hence gave letter to SBI, Avadi to stop payment of medical allowance of Rs. 300/- and obtained certificate. but I had to come to Australia immediately to take care of my daughter and in the process I am neither getting medical allowance or CGHS beneficiary. Can I get my letter revoked and reuest for medical allowance again with SBI or alternatively can I become CGHS beneficiary on return to India after one year
