early warning system

Once plagued by severe monsoon flooding, Gorakhpur has transformed its disaster response. With support from the Gorakhpur Municipal Corporation and tech solutions by Canarys, the city’s flood warning system now helps residents act within two hours — instead of 12.

After the 1999 Super Cyclone, Odisha pioneered a hands-on approach to disaster management, aiming for zero casualties and empowering communities to lead the way.
