In how many cities and districts will the fifth nationwide Digital Life Certificate campaign hold camps?
- A.1000
- B.1500
- C.2000
- D.2500
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 2000. The Department of Pension and Pensioners Welfare will open camps in 2000 cities and districts during the fifth nationwide Digital Life Certificate campaign, which runs from 1 to 30 November 2026. The department has called this the biggest DLC drive it has ever undertaken, and the spread across 2000 places is the main reason for that description. Option A, 1000, is wrong because it is only half of the announced coverage and no such figure was given for this edition. Option B, 1500, is also wrong, as the announcement names a single round figure for the camps and it is not 1500. Option D, 2500, is wrong in the other direction, since it overstates the coverage; aspirants often mix it up with the target for certificates rather than the number of places. Note the other figures separately: the target is 2.30 crore certificates, of which 1.50 crore are to be made by face authentication.
