Married Women's Property Act

Merely buying a life insurance cover alone will not necessarily ensure that your loved ones get the insurance amount in the event of your death. Your term life insurance claim money may not reach your nominee or beneficiary.
In your absence, it can be taken by your relatives or people to whom you may owe money (creditors). You can ensure that the sum assured is indeed passed on to your wife and children by taking a term insurance plan under the MWP Act.
For a married, male policyholder, availing of a term insurance plan under the Married Women’s Property Act, 1874 (MWP Act) helps in protecting your family’s financial interests in your absence. Once a policy is availed under the MWP Act, it may not be attached by courts for repayment of your debts*. Only your wife and children will be entitled to the sum assured in the event of your demise.
