Yes you can claim. In case of individual for the assessee himself, his or her spouse, and childern. In case of HUF, the payment of LIP for Insurance of any member/members of HUF.

Sec. 80C.(1) In computing the total income of an assessee, being an individual or a Hindu undivided family, there shall be deducted, in accordance with and subject to the provisions of this section, the whole of the amount paid or deposited in the previous year, being the aggregate of the sums referred to in sub-section (2), as does not exceed one lakh rupees.
(2) The sums referred to in sub-section (1) shall be any sums paid or deposited in the previous year by the assessee—
