Air India Plane Crash: What the Crash Teaches Us About Insurance

On June 12, 2025, a tragic Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad shocked the whole country. Over 240 people lost their lives, including passengers and people on the ground.

This accident is heartbreaking and has left many families in deep sorrow. While nothing can replace a loved one, there is something that can support families during tough times — and that is insurance.

What Is Insurance?

Insurance is a way to protect yourself and your family from financial problems when something bad or unexpected happens — like an accident, illness, or death.

It doesn’t stop accidents, but it helps reduce the financial pain that comes after.

✍How Insurance Helps in Tragedies Like Plane Crashes

In the Air India crash:

• The families of victims will get compensation through life insurance, travel insurance, or accident policies (if they had one).
• People injured or affected on the ground may get help through health or third-party insurance.
• The airline is also insured — so it can pay for losses, property damage, and help the victims’ families.

This is how insurance works quietly in the background — to support people when life takes a wrong turn.

✍Types of Insurance We Should Know

Here are some basic insurances every person should have:

1. Life Insurance

• Helps your family if you pass away unexpectedly.
• Gives them money to continue life without financial stress.

2. Health Insurance

• Covers hospital bills and treatment costs.
• Saves you from spending huge amounts during illness or injury.

3. Accident Insurance

• Gives money in case of accidental death or serious injury.
• Very useful during travel or risky jobs.

4. Travel Insurance

• Helps during flight delays, baggage loss, or accidents while traveling.
• Some policies even cover plane crash deaths.

✍Real Benefits of Insurance

• Peace of Mind – You can live knowing your family is protected.
• Financial Security – Big expenses are taken care of.
• Emergency Support – Insurance companies help quickly in emergencies.
• Support for Family – They get money to handle life if you’re not there.

✍Why Common People Need Insurance

• Accidents like plane crashes, road mishaps, or sudden illness can happen to anyone.
• Most families in India depend on one earning person — imagine the stress if something happens to them.
• With just ₹500–₹1,000 per month, you can protect your family with lakhs or even crores of insurance coverage.

✍Real-Life Lesson from the Air India Crash

Many victims of the crash were regular people — some were parents, students, workers. No one expected their journey to be the last. If they had life or travel insurance, their families will at least receive financial help.

But what about those who didn’t?

That’s why every Indian family should have basic insurance — for life, health, and travel. It’s not an expense — it’s a protection plan for uncertain times.

📌Finally, We pray for the souls lost in the Ahmedabad crash and strength for their families. Let us also learn something important from this tragedy — life is uncertain, but insurance gives certainty in uncertain times.

Take that step today. Buy insurance, not because you fear death, but because you care for the people you live for.
