To provide deep-tech-based personalised crop insurance products and advisory services to small and underserved farmers
Telangana government and Insurtech firm Wingsure on Wednesday entered into an MoU to provide deep-tech-based personalised crop insurance products and advisory services to small, underserved farmers.
While the State IT Department will guide and facilitate implementation of the solution, the Agriculture Department will offer on-ground implementation through its existing network and assist in prioritising and disseminating critical training and advisory services for farmers, including data acquisition.
Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University will offer domain expertise through its research centres across the State. It will provide advice and expertise on risk mitigation specific to crop, climate, and a few other critical areas through Wingsure’s platform, the firm said in a release.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
