"A team from Janashakthi Insurance came here with a Loss Adjustor within a few days to have a discussion with the Centara staff. We are happy with Janashakthi's prompt service. We are considering getting more comprehensive coverage for our other businesses as well," said Corporate Controller of Administration, Kris Tossanoot.
