IRCTC is now planning to provide another insurance cover to passengers for gadgets like mobile phones and laptops. A meeting was conducted by top officials and insurance companies to discuss the modalities with this regard.
Chairman and Managing director of IRCTC, AK Manocha informed about the meeting. He said: There are some concerns that insurance companies have about false claims. We have shared a few ideas with them and also asked for their suggestions. Offering this policy to credit card holders or government officials in the initial stage is one of the ideas we have floated to mitigate cases of false claims. I am trying hard to push companies to give insurance cover in instances of theft as well. So far, they have expressed their willingness to offer it only in cases of mishaps
