Introduction
Floods are annual natural calamities in India. Each year thousands of people become homeless and hundreds of people dies because of it. There are eleven such states in India which faces floods every year. Apart from this, due to constant climatic and geographical changes there are new states like Jammu and Kashmir and Uttarakhand which got badly affected in floods in the last few years.
This project aims at strengthening rescue and relief operations in India by providing an opportunity for new product development, catering human needs at vital conditions.
