The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) in India conducted a test of the country's new emergency alert system. Mobile users received an emergency alert on their Android and iPhone devices, which included a loud beep and a flash message. The purpose of the test was to evaluate the effectiveness of the system and identify any potential issues. The alert was transmitted through the Cell Broadcasting System (CBS), which allows mobile operators to send text messages to all phones in a specified area.

The DoT explained that the message was part of a test to check the efficiency and effectiveness of the emergency warning broadcast capabilities.

People across the country received a loud beep and a flash with the words EmergencyAlert: extreme. Netizens expressed their emotions and created memes about it on social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter). 

The emergency alert system aims to enhance public safety and provide timely alerts during emergencies.

Several mobile users in India received an emergency alert at around 11.35 am today. Earlier, the emergency text message flashed on Android and iPhone users' devices on September 15.
