Jeevan Pramaan

Jeevan Pramaan is an Indian Aadhaar based digital life certificate for pensioners.^[1] It was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 10 November 2014.^[2][3]

It is expected to benefit over a crore (10 million) pensioners who receive pensions from central or state governments or other government organisations. Jeevan Pramaan will make the requirement for a pensioner obsolete submitting a physical life certificate in November each year to ensure continuity of pension being credited into their account.^[1]

Jeevan Pramaan has been developed by the Department of Electronics and IT, Government of India.^[4][5][6][7]

The Jeevan Pramaan software can be downloaded from https://jeevanpramaan.gov.in/ for both PC and Android devices. Alternatively this process can be carried out at one of the many Jeevan Pramaan Centres. An electronic Jeevan Praaman certificate can be obtained by a pension beneficiary using this software with a fingerprint or iris scan, using the Aadhaar platform for authentication. The certificate can then be made available electronically to the Pension Disbursing Agency.^[1]

Eastern Railway launched a Jeevan Pramaan Centre to facilitate the pensioners at Zonal Headquarter at Fairlie Place, Kolkata on 6 August 2015. The service will be extended to additional divisions, workshops and other major establishments under the jurisdiction of Eastern Railway.^{[citation needed]}
