The app includes the following key features for student safety, especially girl students:
Emergency alert trigger button
Emergency call dial
Mobile-based complaint registration
Location sharing and tracking facilities
It has been observed that many students are unaware of this safety tool. You are therefore requested to:
Instruct all students to download and familiarize themselves with the “Kaaval Uthavi” mobile application.
