      Why Personal Accident Insurance Cover?

      In the modern age which is so fast-paced and enhanced with comforts which were considered a luxury in previous times, contingencies are not far behind. With every comfort comes the relevant uncertainty of facing a contingency which would involve a financial loss. The usage of cars and two-wheelers has increased because of the developing economy where more and more people can afford to own a vehicle. With this development, there is an increased chance of accidents both for the vehicle owners and for the pedestrians otherwise plying on the road. An accident may result in death or disability either temporary or permanent in nature. Both these scenarios will affect the financial standing of a person and thus, insuring oneself with a Personal Accident Insurance plan is the most effective way for guarding against the loss suffered.
