New changes in death certification of pensioner

 The government has given an important update regarding the YSR pension grant. After the death of a pensioner, some important changes have taken place in the matter of death certification. Death verification which was earlier limited to WEA/WWDS in Secretariats is now mandatory for approval by PS/WAS.

The state government is releasing an average of 64 lakh pension cash every month, of which more than 99% is being received by the cash pensioners. The details of non-cash pensioners have to be entered in the mobile application every month. Every month after the distribution of pension, if the pensioner dies and does not receive the pension, their details are entered in the mobile application by WEA in the villages and WWDS in the ward.

It is well known that Panchayat Secretaries in rural areas issue official death certificates similarly Municipal Commissioner Offices in urban areas issue death certificates. Some changes have been made in the verification procedure for the proper functioning of the death verification of the pensioner.
