The Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare, Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, Government of India has launched a nation-wide campaign for promotion of Digital Life Certificate for Central Government pensioners. In this series, the awareness campaign will be held in Guwahati on November 16, 2022 for Central Government pensioners at State Bank of India, New Guwahati Branch, Bamunimaidam. All the pensioners can visit the Centre for submitting their Life Certificates through Digital means.
Earlier, life certificates had to be submitted in physical form which caused delays for old pensioners. Now, life certificates can be submitted at the click of a button. This facility is also available to the employees of the State Government and the disbursing authority in the form of the Treasury Office of the State.
About the Digital Life Certificate:
On November 2021, Dr. Jitendra Singh, the Hon’ble Minister of State (PP) had launched the milestone Face Authentication Technique of submitting Life Certificate through any Android Mobile Phone. Now the department has launched a special nation- wide campaign for promoting the Life certificate through Digital mode and for popularizing the Face Authentication technique. All the registered Pensioners’ Associations, Pension Disbursing Banks, Ministries/ Departments of Government of India and CGHS Wellness Centres have been directed to promote the Digital Life Certificate/Face Authentication Technique for submitting Life Certificate by organising special camps for ‘Ease of Living’ of pensioners.
