Mobile APP that can keep tabs on eve teasers
It is no longer just
pepper sprays, chilli powder or martial art skills that are handy to protect
ourselves….
Zestwings Informatics Pvt. Ltd. an Hyderabad based IT firm has
developed mDEFENCE, an app that acts as an alert system for distressed citizens
and helps them report a host of emergencies to police, media, office, college
or any concerned authority within 60 seconds even without the need to have an
active internet connection on their mobile phones. The app has multiple tabs
and each tab is assigned to a service such as police, fire alert, women cell,
college, ambulance, blood bank etc. The CEO of Zestwings Rajesh Yaramasu says
“If a woman is eve teased, she just need to click the ‘Women Cell’ tab and the
incident is reported to the police within 60 seconds. The app also has an auto
photo capture facility for evidence recovery. Similarly if someone met with a accident,
he/she just needs to click the ‘ambulance tab’ and the news reaches the
considered authority with the details of the victim’s name, location and blood
group and the ambulance can be dispatched immediately.
