🚨 Public Safety & Emergency · Flowchart
How an online police complaint is handled: registration, assignment to the right police station, investigation and updates to the complainant.
Drawing diagram…
Online complaint workflow: a citizen files a complaint on the police portal with OTP verification and gets a complaint number. It is routed to the police station for the location. The station officer reviews it: if it discloses a serious offence an FIR is registered; for minor issues an enquiry is done; false complaints are closed with a reason. The complainant gets SMS updates at each step and the case moves to investigation and final report.

C --> S[SMS updates at each step]An integrated emergency response system like India's 112: calls, SMS and panic-app alerts reach one centre, which dispatches the nearest police, fire or ambulance unit.
What happens in the minutes after someone dials 112: call answered, location fixed, incident created, nearest unit dispatched and the caller updated.
The states of an emergency incident in a dispatch system, from first call to closure, including duplicate calls about the same event.
How warnings for cyclones, floods and earthquakes reach people: sensor and forecast data, a decision by the authority, and cell broadcast, SMS and sirens to the affected area.
How fire stations, the control room and fire engines stay connected, with radio as the main link and mobile data as a backup.
Where a city surveillance system runs: cameras at junctions, local recorders, a central video management system and analytics that raise alerts in the command centre.
