Camp for enrolment of defence pensioners under ‘Jeevan Pramaan’ scheme

  The Government of India has launched ‘Jeevan Pramaan’ scheme in 2014, an Aadhaar based Digital Life Certificate for pensioners, an enabling mechanism for the benefit of the pensioners after the push towards self-certification. This facility provides an option to the pensioners to submit their life certificate digitally by authenticating biometrically using UIDAI database.  The pension disbursing agencies integrated with the Jeevan Pramaan Portal will get access to digital life certificate.  The major benefit of Jeevan Pramaan to pensioners is that they are no longer required to physically present themselves in front of Pension Disbursing Agency to submit their Life Certificate.
   In this connection, the National Informatics Centre (NIC), Port Blair will organise the camp for enrolment of Jeevan Pramaan for the Defence pensioners at NIC Office, GPOA Complex, Ranchi Basthi, Lamba Line, Port Blair during Aug & Sept. 2015. In view of this, all the Defence pensioners have been requested to register their name by Aug 21, 2015 at A&N Raja Sainik Board office, Haddo or by calling over telephone no. 235621 at office hours.
   All ex-Servicemen, World War-II Veteran pensioners and widows of ex-servicemen of these islands have been advised to bring their Aadhar Number, Pension Payment Order (PPO), Pension Bank Account number and Mobile phone number during the scheduled time and enrol their names for Jeevan Pramaan.
It is essential for the pensioner to be physically present for enrolment in the Jeevan Pramaan system as the registration involves authentication of pensioners’ fingerprint, a communication from the Secretary, RSB said
