You must have usually heard people saying that we should take health insurance so that we do not face any problems in the future with treatment. Similarly, there are many other types of insurance, such as car insurance or insurance of any goods. Similarly, when we travel by bus, we also get the facility of insurance. This is so that if the bus meets with an accident due to any reason, then the passengers can get insurance so that they can be helped, but do you know whether all the people traveling on the bus get this insurance or is there any rule for it? Probably not, so let's know what is the rule for this. You can know about this in the next slides...
When do you get travel insurance?
When you travel by bus, you get the facility of travel insurance. This is available in the situation when the bus becomes a victim of an accident. In such a situation, the injured and the dead are given financial help through insurance under the rules.
Who gets insurance?
If we talk about those people who get travel insurance, then know that there are rules for it. Actually, according to the rules, financial help under insurance is given only to those people who have a ticket. This means that only those people who have taken a bus ticket get the benefit of travel insurance.
When we buy a bus ticket, the insurance money is deducted from it. It is very small. This insurance ranges from a few paise to 2 or 2.5 rupees, that is, we have to pay only that much money with our ticket for this, which is included in the total amount of the bus ticket.
These people do not get the benefit of insurance
According to the rules, the benefit of travel insurance is available only to those people who travel by bus or train, etc. However, if any financial help is given by the government, then those people can get it, but the insurance amount is not available.
