Elabharthi

What is Elabharthi?

Elabharthi is an online portal launched by the Government of Bihar to provide citizens with easy access to various pension-related services. It was specifically developed to assist individuals who faced difficulties in receiving their pension disbursements.

Through the E-Labharthi portal, beneficiaries can easily check information related to old age pensions, widow pensions, disability pensions, and more directly from their mobile phones or computers. The platform also allows users to track pension payments, verify certificate details, and monitor the overall status of their applications.

The main objective of the portal is to raise awareness about different pension schemes and to ensure that beneficiaries receive timely financial support to meet their essential needs.

Objective behind E Labharthi Portal

1. Access to Information

   The primary objective behind the creation of the Elabharthi portal was to grant access to every eligible pensioner to obtain information about different government pension schemes. Earlier, beneficiaries were required to visit government offices to inquire about their pension details. With the launch of Elabharthi, people can now check every detail from the comfort of their homes.

2. Online Government Services

   To remove barriers faced by the people of Bihar, it became important to provide a unified platform where government services could be accessed online. With this system, citizens are no longer required to visit government offices for their pension-related needs. All benefits are now available digitally through the official website. The portal provides complete information about old-age, disability, and widow pension schemes, making services more transparent and accessible to everyone.

E Labharthi KYC

The E Labharthi KYC (Know Your Customer) process is mandatory for all pension beneficiaries under the Bihar government’s social security pension schemes such as old age, widow, and disability pensions. Key points about E Labharthi KYC include:

• The KYC must be completed annually to continue receiving pension payments. Without valid KYC, beneficiaries may be considered deceased, and their pension disbursal will be stopped.
• KYC verification is done through physical biometric authentication, usually conducted via door-to-door visits by authorised officials, or at local block offices and Common Service Centers (CSCs).
• The process involves verifying documents such as Aadhaar card, bank passbook, and biometric verification (fingerprint, iris scan).
• Beneficiaries can also check their KYC status online at E Labharthi portal.
• For online KYC, beneficiaries (or CSC operators) may log in to the portal using CSC credentials to complete or verify KYC digitally.
• The portal remains open year-round to enable KYC updates as required.

Conclusion

The Elabharthi portal is a significant digital initiative by the Bihar government that has transformed the way pension services are accessed and managed. By providing a transparent, efficient, and user-friendly platform, Elabharthi ensures that eligible beneficiaries can easily obtain information, track payments, and complete essential processes like KYC without the need to visit government offices. This has not only streamlined pension plan distribution but also enhanced accountability and inclusivity in social security programs.
