The Digital Life Certificate Campaign 3.0, Jeevan Praman, is the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the digital empowerment of pensioners.
The DLC Campaign 3.0 is being held in 800 cities and towns of India from November 1-30, 2024 in which all Pensioners of Central/state governments/ EPFO/autonomous bodies can submit their Digital Life Certificates at Pension Disbursing Banks or the IPPB.
Super Senior Pensioners can do it from their residences and are provided doorstep delivery of services. All Pension Disbursing Banks, the CGDA, the IPPB, and the UIDAI will be coming together to implement the DLC Campaign on a nationwide basis.
The present campaign is an initiative to ensure that the technique of using Face Authentication for DLC submission reaches pensioners in the remotest areas, to enable them to understand and use the technique from the comfort of their homes. Through the use of digital modes, pensioners can submit Life Certificates anytime, anywhere, which is a huge step towards making life easy for pensioners, particularly the aged, sick, and disabled pensioners. Such camps are being held in more than 35 cities covering 60 locations in Telangana by all the stakeholders. Almost 50 senior-level officers are working on this campaign in Telangana. More than 80,000 pensioners are drawing pension through banks in Telangana and SPARSH outreach is being conducted by the CGDA for more than 73,000 pensioners across various stations in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
