  The Life Insurance Corporation has been asked to work out details of 
an insurance scheme for journalists, the Union Minister for Information 
and Broadcasting, Ravi Shankar Prasad, said. Referring to the 
long-standing demand, he said he was for providing the insurance cover 
to the scribes. Also, the Centre would consider enhancing the corpus of 
the Journalists' Welfare Fund, set up with Rs. 5 crores.
