As Char Dham Yatra Gains Momentum, Asego Reinforces Pilgrim Protection

The Voice of Chandigarh

With the Char Dham Yatra commencing this April and registrations surging into lakhs each season, risk preparedness becomes critical across the Himalayan corridor. High-altitude terrain, unpredictable weather, landslides, and crowd-related incidents continue to expose yatris to medical and logistical emergencies — where a single air evacuation can cost ₹8–20 lakhs.

Asego strengthens its support to the travellers through Pilgrim Protect – a Travel Assistance and Insurance product built exclusively for high-risk pilgrimage routes.

The plan offers 24/7 emergency medical assistance and evacuation support, coverage for accidents, including stampede and emergency air transfers, protection against high-altitude illness, trip delay cover due to natural calamities, and medical expense coverage for hiking related mishaps.

Mr. Dev Karvat, Founder & CEO, Asego, said, “Pilgrimage travel demands a structured emergency response. Preparedness today is not optional — it is a responsibility.”
