CONCEPT OF MODEL INSURANCE VILLAGE (MIV)
 The idea is to offer comprehensive insurance protection to all the major insurable risks that villagers are exposed to and make available covers at affordable or subsidised cost.
 In order to make the premium affordable, financial support needs to be explored through NABARD, other institutions, CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) funds, government support and support from reinsurance companies.
 It may be implemented in a minimum of 500 villages in different districts of the country in the first year and increased to 1,000 villages in the subsequent two years.
 Every general insurance company and reinsurance company accepting general insurance business and having offices in India needs to be involved for piloting the concept.
