8437 - Defence Pensioners Jeevan Pramaan Certificate Enrolment by RSB - Echo of India


Port Blair
3 Aug 2015

The Government of India 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 toward 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 Basti, Lamba Line, Port Blair during Aug & Sept.15. Therefore, the Defence pensioners are requested to register their name by 21st Aug’15 at A & N Raja Sainik Board office, Haddo, Port Blair 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 Aadhaar Number, Pension Payment Order (PPO), Pension Bank Account number and Mobile phone number during the scheduled time and enroll 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 pensioner’s fingerprint.
