The National Landslide Forecasting Centre (NLFC) was inaugurated by Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy with the primary aim of mitigating landslide hazards in India. Located at the Geological Survey of India's Dharitri Campus in Kolkata, the NLFC will provide live forecasting reports for residents of Kalimpong, Darjeeling, and Nilgiri districts starting from July 20, 2024. The NLFC plans to issue early warning bulletins nationwide by 2030. It will use advanced technology to provide early warnings, integrating real-time rainfall and slope instability data to enhance forecasting accuracy. This initiative aims to provide crucial information to local administrations, thereby reducing disaster risks associated with landslides. Additionally, the Bhusanket Web Portal and Bhooskhalan Mobile App were launched to support disaster risk reduction through data dissemination and daily landslide forecasts.
