Emergency Service-999
Steps taken to make 999 more effective: Minister
The government has taken various measures, including installation of internet of things (IoT) and bringing the entire country under a Geographic Information System (GIS) software, to make the National Emergency Service-999 more effective and speedily spread the service all over the country.
Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan said this in Parliament on Monday while replying to a query from Jatiya Party MP Fakhrul Imam.
Talking about the future features to make the 999 service more effective and easier while replying to a tabled question, he said under the supervision of Bangladesh Police, the total map of the country will be brought under a modern GIS software.
“Through this, it’ll be possible to identify the emergency-providing site quickly and accurately. As a result of the GIS software, it’ll be possible to provide service under the National Emergency Service-999 specifically,” the minister said.
He also said the entire policing system will come under a modern technological system as a special feature of crime map will be included in this GIS software.
