Floods, cyclones and earthquakes are not common. Neither do they come with an announcement. Yet, such natural calamities occur frequently in our country. The financial losses that one incurs in the aftermath of such calamities can be quite devastating. Recent episodes of cyclone in Chennai and the impact of the 2016 earthquake in Nepal, which also left several parts of UP and Bihar affected, are still fresh. Damage to one’s house due to a calamity can be very shocking, especially because a house is something that most of us build or buy with great sacrifices.
