Dear Veteran brothers,
We
understand that, there is Mismatch of Date of Birth of Spouse in the PPO, incorrect or only year
is mentioned.
Now, after
Migration to Sparsh, we LOGIN to the Portal profile and Try to correct the DOB
of spouse. We were in doubt
whether only the Birth certificate is
acceptable for correction of DOB. It is
very difficult to get a Birth certificate for elderly pensioners.
Due to lot of representations to Government, the Dept.of Pension and Pension Welfare has issued an advisory in the regard , they say,
the other Documents like, Aadhar card, PAN card, Voters ID,
Matriculation certificate, Passport, Driving License, and ECHS card are acceptable for correction of DOB.
Hence, we
can now correct the DOB of spouse by
Uploading any one of the said documents.
All our
veterans are requested to note the same and pass on to other veterans also
