Surakshit Bharat: A Comprehensive, Centralized Emergency Response System for India

This research paper introduces Surakshit Bharat, a centralized and all-encompassing emergency response system for India. Although India has adopted the 112 emergency system, it is still quite ineffective in comparison to its equivalents, including the 911 system in the United States and the 112 system in the European Union. The current system does not have extensive coverage of various emergency services and does not offer quick response mechanisms like the 911 model. In the 911 system, there are dedicated dispatchers who take emergency calls and immediately deploy the required emergency services. Our application will try to adopt a similar, centralized response system in which different emergency services can be contacted depending on the location of the victim. The system will alert the nearest emergency service stations automatically, and a quick response will be ensured. By consolidating several emergency services on one platform, our solution does away with memorizing various emergency contact numbers, hence saving precious time during emergencies. Furthermore, identifying conditions under which users might be unable to call or communicate orally, our system offers backup options for interaction in the form of text messages and chat support. The application further includes sharing the real-time location and a camera feature for improved situational awareness for the emergency responders. In addition, an AI-driven chatbot has been incorporated to give users critical first aid instructions until the arrival of emergency responders. With the help of cutting-edge technology, Surakshit Bharat hopes to increase emergency response services' efficiency and availability in India, which should lead to increased public safety and lowered response times.
