Uttarakhand Minister Urges Union To Start Tourist Covid-19 Insurance

Uttarakhand Tourism Minister Satpal Maharaj in a letter to Union Tourism ministry has asked to launch a ‘Covid-19 Insurance’ to revive tourism in the state. Maharaj said the insurance will "..attract them (tourists) to visit India and assure them of safety”. The letter came ahead of Haridwar Kumbh in January 2021. It added that a Covid-19 insurance policy would also attract NRI’s and foreign tourists to the tourism-backed state's economy.
