1:36 And you can pay the premium monthly, semiannually or annually.
1:41 What all will be included in the policy?
1:44 The policy has the details of what is covered that you should read before signing the detail.
1:49 However if you are concerned about claims, then let me tell you that our company has a policy of providing easy claim service.
