Principles of Insurance
Under this principle it is the duty of the insured to take all possible steps
to minimize the loss to the
insured property on the happening of uncertain event.
According to the Principle of Loss Minimization, insured must always try
his level best to minimize the loss of
his insured property, in case of uncertain events like a fire outbreak or
blast, etc. The insured must take all
possible measures and necessary steps to control and reduce the losses
in such a scenario. The insured
must not neglect and behave irresponsibly during such events just
because the property is insured. Hence it
is a responsibility of the insured to protect his insured property and avoid
further losses
