Government’s initiative on emergency mobile alert system

The Government of India is on its testing phase of emergency alert system. Since last few months GOI periodically sending test flash message to several Android phone users. The alert included a loud beep and a message informing users that it was a test and no action was required. The purpose of these tests is to enhance public safety and provide timely alerts during emergencies. It is to ensure that the alert message is read. The government is working with the National Disaster Management Authority to ensure that users are alerted about natural disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis and flash floods.

The National Public Alerting System is a federal, provincial, and territorial system that enables emergency management organizations across some other different countries like who already have this alert system, like USA, Europe, and Canada etc. to warn public about imminent or possible dangers such as floods, tornados, hazardous materials, fires and other disasters. The system is also used for Amber alerts and other urgent bulletins about child abductions when the child is thought to be in danger. These potentially life-savings warnings, which area-specific (geo-targeted), are known as emergency alerts. When an alert is issued, it broadcast on television and radio and sent to mobile devices that are connected to an LTE (long-term evolution) network.
