Request clarification on EPF

I worked with a private deemed-to-be university in Tamil Nadu and resigned recently to pursue Ph.D.  on self financed basis. I want to keep alive my EPF a/c. I understand that no interest will be payable for EPF a/cs lying dormant for more than 3 years. I want to keep alive my EPF a/c. In this regard, is there any workaround including voluntary contribution to my EPF a/c to keep it alive and continue to earn interest on the contributions lying on the a/c? If so what is the procedure?

Thanking you for your time and reply, R. Ganesan.

If your objective is earning interest, better withdraw it and put in Public Provident Fund - PPF with State Bank of India  or the local post office.
