Digital Life Certificate Campaign 3.0: The central government is conducting a month-long campaign in November to allow pensioners to submit their digital life certificates (DLC), seeking to help millions of senior citizens.
The Department of Pension & Pensioners' Welfare (DoPPW) will organise DLC Campaign 3.0 in 800 cities and districts where pensioners, including those from the central and state governments, EPFO and autonomous bodies, submit DLCs either through digital means or via doorstep services. Door-to-door assistance will be provided for super senior pensioners.
The DoPPW organised a campaign in 37 locations in 2022, generating 1.41 crore DLCs. The campaign in 2023 was extended to 100 locations, with over 1.47 crore DLCs generated.

For pensioners who are unable to access digital platforms, alternative options will continue to be available. They can still submit their certificates through traditional methods, such as visiting pension offices or utilising post office services.
