Agri-tech start-up FAARMS, in association with Reliance General Insurance Company Ltd. (RGICL), has introduced customized digital insurance solutions for the rural population especially the farmers. The partnership is aimed at offering comprehensive financial protection to the uninsured individuals of the country.
