NIC Kurukshetra developed a ’Help The Needy’ mobile app that enables citizens to report about needy children & elders, road accidents, and injured/ dead animals lying on roads. When a user takes a picture, this app automatically captures the geo-location and forwards it to the concerned department/organization for necessary actions.

In our everyday monotonous routine, we all came across a lot of things for which we have sympathy, and being part of the society we want to show it feasibly. For eg: Any person lying on the roadside especially during the winter season, children working in Dhabas/ Restaurants, Dead animals lying on roads, beggars found wandering at chowks, highways, religious places, etc we want to help them. However, many Government Departments and the private organization works on them. But, due to a lack of timely available information, concrete help could not be provided. Therefore, to assist the needy and provide vital information in time, a system is in need.

Whenever a person spots someone in need, all he has to do is simply he has to take a photo of that person, the system will capture the demographical information i.e. location (Longitude, Latitude), Place Name, etc and flash on a page visible to all concerned. Concerned authorities/ Private organizations have the option to take the decision to help the needy.

We have used Flutter Framework for this Mobile App Development and Firebase as Backend.
