Do a person get claims of life insurance upon his/her death in extraordinary conditions like earthquake pandemics or terrorist attacks. Or there are any technicalities to it ?

Yes Earthquake , Pandemic and Terrorist attack are covered unless force majeure is approved by regulator IRDA .
If Force Majeure is applied the claim can be withheld .
One company can not apply that and hold claim .
