There is news of relief for pensioners across the country. The Department of Pension and Pensioners Welfare (DopPW) has announced to launch a digital life certificate (DLC) campaign across the country. This campaign will be run from 1 November to 30 November 2025 in 1,600 districts and sub-divisional headquarters across the country.
The aim of this special camp is that pensioners should get facilities near their house and they do not have to visit the bank or government offices. India Post Payments Bank (IPPB) and major pension distribution banks are cooperating in this.
Special facility for super senior citizens
The government has made special provisions for pensioners who are 80 years or older. Such elderly can submit a life certificate from October 1, 2025. For this, banks have been instructed to keep their branches ready for DLC services from the month of October. The aim of this is that the elderly do not have to go out again and again at the beginning of winter.
DLC can also deposit from mobile
Now pensioners can also submit life certificates from their mobile phones sitting at home, that too only by face authorization. This method is especially useful for those who cannot walk or live in far-flung areas. Let’s know how to use this facility.
Install the required apps
First of all, go to Google Play Store in your smartphone and install the “Aadhaar Face RD” app. This app has been released by UIDAI and is necessary for face scanning. After this, you also have to install another app called “Jeevan Pramaan”, which is used to generate a digital life certificate.
Register yourself as an operator
When both apps are installed, open the ‘Jeevan Pramaan’ app. Here first you have to register the operator. Information like Aadhaar number, mobile number, email will have to be entered in it and then the verification will have to be completed through OTP.
Submit DLC by face authenticate
After the operator registration, the real work starts now. After filling the details of the pensioner, the app will identify your face. Before scanning the necessary instructions will come on the screen, read them carefully and allow them to scan. As soon as the scan is completed, a successful DLC submit message will be seen on the screen, which will include proof ID and PPO number. You can download your certificate by visiting the website through this ID.
