Mega Camp for Digital Life Certificate in Ahmedabad; more camps planned at 107 places in Gujarat

New Delhi: The Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare (DoPPW), Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, is conducting the Nationwide Digital Life Certificate (DLC) Campaign 4.0 from 1st to 30th November 2025. As part of this initiative, a Mega Camp is being organized by the Department of Telecommunications at Tagore Hall in Paldi, Ahmedabad, today.

The Mega Camp aims to assist pensioners in submitting their Life Certificates through various digital modes. UIDAI will provide support for Aadhaar record updation wherever required and address any related technical issues.

The DLC Campaign 4.0 aims to reach two crore pensioners across more than 2,000 cities and towns through a saturation-based outreach approach. The campaign emphasizes the use of Aadhaar-based Face Authentication technology, enabling pensioners to submit their Life Certificates conveniently without requiring biometric devices. Special focus is being given to super senior and differently-abled pensioners through the India Post Payments Bank’s (Department of Posts) doorstep DLC service.

The campaign brings together all major stakeholders, including banks, India Post Payments Bank, the Department of Telecommunications, UIDAI, MeitY, NIC, and Pensioners’ Welfare Associations in Gujarat — namely Kendriya Nivrutta Karmachari Mandal, Baroda Central Pensioners’ Association, and Posts and Telegraphs and Other Central Government Pensioners’ Association — to work collaboratively toward achieving digital inclusion of pensioners. The DLC Portal provides real-time monitoring of DLC generation by various agencies.

It is expected that approximately 2,000 pensioners from various departments and organizations will attend the event in Ahmedabad.

As part of the Nationwide DLC Campaign 4.0, camps will be organized across 82 cities and 107 locations in Gujarat, covering various districts and sub-divisions. A total of 107 Nodal Officers will participate in these camps to ensure smooth conduct across all locations. DeshGujarat
