<problem_statement>In many semi-urban and rural areas, residents face safety risks—such as local hazards, floods, fires, or community emergencies—without a coordinated alert or response mechanism.&#13;
Social media spreads information, but not always to the right people at the right time.&#13;
Communities need a structured and verified system to report, alert, and coordinate responses to neighborhood safety issues.</problem_statement>
