Pensioners have to submit Life Certificate annually for continuation of pension. Traditionally LCs were submitted in physical mode which was inconvenient for pensioners. In November, 2014 an Aadhar based scheme for online submission of digital life certificate, Jeevan Pramaan, was launched by the Hon'ble Prime Minister with the objective to ensure transparency in the system and facilitate pensioners to submit life certificates at their comfort, thus greatly enhancing their Ease of Living.

To spread awareness about the benefits of Digital Life Certificates and techniques for generating the same, DLC Campaigns have been held for Central Government Pensioners. The 1st such campaign was held from 1st to 30th November, 2022 at 37 cities. DLC Campaign 2.0 was held at 597 locations in 100 cities in November, 2023 under which a total of 1.47 crore DLCs were generated, of which,

45.46 lakh were of Central Government Pensioners.DLC Campaign 3.0 was held from 1st to 30th November at 845 Cities/ Districts under which a total of

1.62 crore DLCs were generated, of which, 49.75 lakh were of Central Government Pensioners. More than 85,200 DLC were submitted by pensioners above 90 years age, of which more than 2200 were of Pensioners above 100 years of age. 52.73 lakh DLCs have been generated using Face Authentication technique.

This year, DoPPW will be conducting the 4th Nation-wide Digital Life Certificate campaign which will be held in 2000 Districts/ Sub-Divisions/ Cities across India from November 1-30, 2025. For this, the department has notified the guidelines through O.M. dated 30th July, 2025. Dedicated DLC portal has been created with mapping of 2000 Districts/ Sub-Divisions, 2500 camp locations and 1230 nodal officers to closely monitor the campaign.

The Campaign will be held in collaboration with Pension Disbursing Banks, India Post Payments Bank, Pensioners’ Welfare Associations, CGDA, DoT, Railways with the aim of touching all the pensioners in remotest corners of the country and extensive outreach meetings along with trainings have been held with all stakeholders. MeitY and UIDAI will provide full technical support during this Campaign.

IPPB will be holding Camps at 1600 Districts/ Sub Divisions through its vast network of 1.8 lakh postmen and Gramin Dak Sewaks. IPPB provides doorstep DLC services which is available to all categories of Pensioners across the country.

19 Pension Disbursing Banks will also hold camps at 250 cities at more than 1250 locations.

Visits will be made to the homes/hospitals for aged/disabled/sick pensioners, thus affording them the ease of digitally submitting life certificates. These steps are aimed at ensuring that all pensioners benefit from the Campaign and is particularly helpful to the super senior/ incapacitated pensioners.

57 Pensioners’ Welfare Associations, registered with DoPPW, will play a crucial role in the campaign by organizing camps and also mobilizing pensioners for the camps which will be held by IPPB and Pension Disbursing Banks.

The focus is majorly on promoting Face Authentication Technology. MeitY and UIDAI will provide technical support during this Campaign. Face Authentication has been made more seamless and convenient for the elderly Pensioners and can be used on Android as well as iOS.
