Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar:
The Pension Welfare Department and the Postal Department have introduced a biometric system, allowing pensioners to obtain their life certificates (also known as "Jeevan Praman Patra") through post.
To reduce the inconvenience faced by pensioners in obtaining life certificates, a life certificate will now be provided by the postman. It will be delivered to the pensioner's home via the sub-postmaster. Pensioners are advised to contact the post office to avail of this service, said the Senior Superintendent of Posts (SSP) G Hari Prasad.
