Now the requirement of Aadhaar card for Digital Life Certificate has been done away with. Post office is providing this facility at home
Life certificate is very important if you get pension. Every year it has to be deposited. If it is delayed, then the pension is withheld. Previously, pensioners had to visit the bank or post office for this. Digital Life Certificate facility was introduced for some time after which the bank and the post office were relieved. However, the elders were still facing problems regarding the imperative of Aadhaar Card.
Now the imperative of Aadhaar card has also been done away with. In fact, the government was being compelled that due to Aadhar imperative, it is difficult to prepare a life certificate in a digital way. Many pensioners had complained that finger print and retina detection is not being done correctly due to which digital life certificate is not being prepared. Now Aadhaar has been made voluntary. For this, the government issued a notification at the end of March. A notification was issued on March 18 by the IT ministry.
