When you are travelling abroad, it is always a good idea to opt in for Travel Insurance. Whether it is an Allianz Travel Insurance or Seven Corners Travel Insurance, it is going to help you a lot when something goes wrong during your trip. A Travel Insurance is generally different from a Trip Insurance.
A Travel Insurance only covers your actual travel. It could be your travel through Airlines, or some other mode of transportation. However, a Trip Insurance covers your entire trip, from leaving your place to reaching back safely to your place. Hence, it is also an intelligent decision to look into a Trip Insurance.
When you search for a Travel Insurance for your abroad travel, make sure your Travel Insurance is actually an International Travel Insurance. The insurance must cover internationally. When you travel by a car, you should also consider having car Travel Insurance as well.
Some travelers also choose to have Travel Guard Insurance or AIG Travel Insurance. You can also choose an AAA Trip Insurance or Trawick Travel Insurance or Squaremouth Travel Insurance. All these Travel Insurance Companies provide a good deal of insurance plans. When you enquire about a Travel Insurance, don’t forget to ask and understand their cancellation policies. The cancellation policies need to be clear and simple with as less terms and conditions as possible.
Some travel insurance also provides a health coverage. These kinds of insurance plans are a bit expensive, but it is very beneficial when you fall sick during your travel. Falling sick abroad is always a difficult situation to be in. And it becomes a little bit easier when you have your health insurance.

Nepal to conduct Rhino census in March 2020
2 September 2019
Nepal government will conduct Rhino census in March next year. The government could not conduct planned Rhino census last year as the donor agencies failed to provide the funding they pledged for the same.
Officials of the Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation (DNPWC) said that they have already allocated budget Rs 11 million for this purpose. Officials said that they will approach the donor agencies only if they fail to have enough budgets for the census.Rhinos are found in Chitwan, Parsa, Bardiya and Shuklaphanta national parks. The census would be carried out in these national parks simultaneously. DNPWC deputy director-general Ram Chandra Kandel said they have started preparations to conduct the rhino census beginning from March 14, 2020.Officials said that separate task forces will be formed at the national parks under the coordination of the chief conservation officer of the park concerned as part of the Rhino census.According to him, a separate committee would also be formed at the Department to this effect.
Kandel said a budget of around Rs 15 million is expected to be required for conducting the census in all the four national parks.The Department had not earmarked the budget under this heading last year. He said the rhino counting will take about one month in Chitwan national park while it may take for about a week to 10 days in other national parks.The highest number of rhinos is found in Chitwan. As per the census held in 2015, there were 645 rhinos throughout the country. Of the total number, 605 rhinos were counted in Chitwan national park alone. Many rhinos were swept away by the flood in Chitwan two years back while some of these pachyderms were found dead.
