OTP being sought for NPS, teachers fearing cyber fraud

The uploading process of documents for New Pension Scheme (NPS) in Tilkamanjhi Bhagalpur University (TMBU) started two days ago, but in this online process, OTP is sent to the mobile number of the teachers concerned. Which the university staff call and ask. In such a situation, teachers are afraid that cyber thugs should take advantage of this.

Actually, cyber thugs also ask for the number by sending OTP on mobile, telling themselves to be a bank employee or a person of other finance. The thugs steal money from the account as soon as the OTP is told.

The documents have Aadhaar numbers of almost all personnel linked to mobiles. After entering the Aadhaar number in the form, the OTP comes on the mobile number linked with the Aadhaar of the concerned personnel. The online form for NPS opens only after entering the OTP. After which all the information of the concerned personnel is filled by the university personnel for the PRAN number. After the complete process the document gets uploaded. After this the PRAN number of the personnel will be sent to everyone’s address by post. The process of NPS will proceed only after getting the PRAN number.

Depositing amount in the account will start after PRAN number

After getting the PRAN number, the concerned personnel will inform it to their department and accounts branch. Its information from the institute will be made available to the university. After this, the contribution of the workers will be deposited in the account of NPS through that PRAN number. The university will also have to make its contribution in this account. This process is expected to take more than two months.

Institutes got the job of uploading

Some teachers have said that due to lack of skilled operators for the process of uploading, it will be delayed. Only two people have been hired for this. The data of about four hundred teachers and personnel has to be uploaded. The teachers suggested that if the uploading order is given to the concerned department and institute with user id and password, then it will also not pose a threat of cyber fraud and the process will be completed in time.
