Google has launched its Android Emergency Location Service (ELS) in India, starting in Uttar Pradesh. This service automatically shares a caller's location with emergency responders when dialing 112, aiming to minimize response delays. ELS can pinpoint locations within 50 meters by utilizing GPS, Wi-Fi, and mobile networks. Integrating ELS with local systems, over 20 million emergency calls have been supported in the state, ensuring faster and more accurate assistance during emergencies.
