The Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) launched its Nationwide Digital Life Certificate (DLC) Campaign 5.0, commencing with outreach camps at New Tinsukia and Dibrugarh on November 2nd, 2026. This initiative, organized under the supervision of the NFR Pensioners’ Association (NFRPA), aimed to assist railway pensioners and family pensioners in submitting their annual life certificates conveniently.
During the inaugural camp, 52 pensioners participated, with 47 attending in New Tinsukia and 5 in Dibrugarh. By the end of the month-long campaign, a total of 35 pensioners and family pensioners had their life certificates successfully uploaded digitally. Additional camps are scheduled to follow, with one planned for Dibrugarh on November 6th, 2026, to cater to the remaining pensioners.
The campaign runs from November 1st to 30th, 2026, and adheres to guidelines set by the Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare and the Railway Board. The primary focus of the DLC Campaign 5.0 is to promote the digital submission of life certificates using Aadhaar-based face authentication technology on compatible smartphones, thereby eliminating the necessity for pensioners to visit banks or pension disbursing offices.
Campaign activities are slated to take place at various locations, including NFR zonal and divisional headquarters, workshops, and other areas with significant pensioner populations, in coordination with NFRPA, banks, and relevant agencies. Special emphasis is being placed on assisting pensioners aged 80 years and above, as well as those with illness or mobility constraints, through doorstep assistance where necessary.
By facilitating this digital process, NFR aims to simplify and enhance the accessibility of annual life certificate submissions for its retired employees and family pensioners, encouraging eligible pensioners to take advantage of the designated camps and assistance facilities to complete the process within the given timeframe.
