What is Tripura CM Elderly Social Security Pension?
The Tripura Mukhyamantri elderly social security pension pays ₹2,000 a month to permanent residents of the state aged 60 and above. The amount is a combination of the central IGNOAPS (Indira Gandhi National Old Age Pension Scheme) component under the National Social Assistance Programme and a Tripura state top-up, which is why it is higher than the bare central rate. BPL and low-income families are prioritised, and beneficiaries above 80 move to the enhanced NOAPS rate. The pension is credited by DBT straight into the Aadhaar-linked bank account, so account-Aadhaar seeding is mandatory rather than optional. Applications are made at the District Social Welfare Officer (DSWO) office or the local BDO office. One recurring requirement catches people out: a Life Certificate must be submitted every November, otherwise the pension is suspended — it can be filed at the DSWO office, the bank, a Common Service Centre, or from a phone using the Jeevan Pramaan app with Aadhaar biometrics.
