Life Certificate: Crores of people in the country get pension from the central or state government. At present there are about 69.76 lakh pensioners of the Central Government. Whereas so many pensioners are from the state government and other institutions. To ensure that your pension continues to come, pensioners have to submit their life certificates to banks every year. If you do not do this, your pension may be stopped. The government is continuously making efforts so that pensioners do not have to come to banks every year to submit their life certificates. For this, the government has provided facilities to pensioners like door-step banking, post payment bank, face authentication, video call, through which they can deposit their life certificate in the bank.
Government banks also keep giving information about submission of life certificate to the people through social media so that the pensioners do not face any problem. The country’s government bank UCO Bank has shared information for those pensioners who have their pension account with this bank. The bank has said that pensioners can now submit life certificate through video.
