India, April 2 -- As many as 1.9 crore digital life certificates were generated by pensioners in the last financial year, the Lok Sabha was informed on Wednesday. All pensioners are required to submit a life certificate for the continuation of pension payment. To sort out the difficulties being faced by elderly, super senior and differently-abled pensioners in submitting digital life certificates, nationwide digital life certificate (DLC) campaigns have been held from November 1 to 30 every year from 2022 onwards in which camps were held at various locations in identified districts/cities/towns, Union Minister of State for Personnel Jitendra Singh said in a written reply to a question.
