The government believes that the integration of the system would help make Mumbai more resilient towards flooding by providing early warning, especially during high rainfall events and cyclones.

The ministry highlighted that the system will be useful for people living in low-lying areas who need to be evacuated during such situations.

This highly advanced flood warning system will help Mumbaikars in a big way.

It will address the flood inundation due to rainfall, river bank breach, storm surge, obstruction of flow due to roads, buildings, rail lines, high tides and sea-level rise.
