The pensioners have to download the Jeevan Pramaan face application to submit the life certificate through face recognition. Pensioners must visit ‘Google Play Store’ and download the ‘Jeevan Pramaan’ app.
Process to Use the Face Recognition App
- Download the Jeevan Pramaan application on the mobile phone (as provided above).
