For verification of the online application form in rural areas, the final decision is taken by the District Social Welfare Officer after recommendations from the Gram Panchayat Development Officer, Assistant Social Welfare Officer, and Block Development Officer, respectively. In urban areas, verification and recommendation are done by the Assistant Social Welfare Officer and Sub-District Magistrate. If the application is found correct, the District Social Welfare Officer approves it, after which the pension payment process is initiated.
