Life Certificate, to prove that one is alive, is an unnecessary harassment every November, for senior citizens, and is absolutely avoidable.
For getting monthly pension Aadhaar Card is a requisite. If Death Certificate is linked to Aadhaar card, pension will automatically cease as soon as the Death Certificate is generated.
As the death certificate is mandatory for all cremations/burials there should be no necessity of submitting a Life Certificate every year.
