As the Char Dham Yatra commences this April, with registrations surging into lakhs each season, ensuring traveller safety across the Himalayan corridor has become increasingly critical. The 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.
To address these challenges, Asego has strengthened its support for pilgrims through Pilgrim Protect, a travel assistance and insurance product designed specifically for high-risk pilgrimage routes.
The plan provides:
-
24/7 emergency medical assistance and evacuation support
-
Coverage for accidents, including stampedes and emergency air transfers
-
Protection against high-altitude illness
-
Trip delay coverage due to natural calamities
-
Medical expense coverage for hiking-related mishaps
“Pilgrimage travel demands a structured emergency response. Preparedness today is not optional — it is a responsibility,” said Dev Karvat, Founder & CEO of Asego.
With Pilgrim Protect, travel partners can offer faith-led journeys backed by real-time safety assurance, ensuring that devotees can focus on their spiritual experience while remaining fully protected.
