Rajasthan, IRDAI discuss roadmap for 'Insurance for All by 2047'
Two important leaders in India met in Jaipur to talk about insurance.
Insurance is a way people get money to help pay for accidents, sickness, or other problems.
One leader is the Chief Secretary of Rajasthan and the other is the head of India's insurance regulator.
They want everyone in India to have insurance by the year 2047.
Right now, many people do not have insurance, especially people who are poor or vulnerable.
The leaders talked about government programs that offer cheap accident and life insurance.
They also talked about making health insurance claims faster and easier to process.
