New Delhi, Jun 22 (PTI) The PFRDA has launched an AI-enabled grievance redressal platform for its subscribers, making pension services more inclusive and accessible.
The 'PFRDA Pension Sahayak' platform
integrates multiple pension service touchpoints into a unified digital ecosystem and marks a significant step towards citizen-centric governance and digital transformation in the sector, Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) said in a statement.
The platform supports 22 Indian languages through integration with Bhashini and enables voice-based grievance filing, making pension services more inclusive and accessible, particularly for senior citizens, rural subscribers and users who are more comfortable communicating in regional languages, it said.
Subscribers can also receive responses in their preferred language and access audio-based communication, it said.
The platform also incorporates an automated escalation mechanism whereby grievances not resolved within prescribed timelines are escalated automatically, enhancing accountability and ensuring timely resolution, it added.
The platform combines the principles of accessibility, transparency and accountability envisaged under the Centre's NextGen CPGRAMS with specialized pension-sector workflows, multilingual citizen interaction, integrated grievance handling and AI-enabled supervisory capabilities, it said.
