Reliance Communications sets up special call centre in Hudhud-hit Andhra Pradesh

NEW DELHI: Reliance Communications Monday said that its Andhra Pradesh unit has set up a special call centre to provide assistance to the Hudhud cyclone- and flood-affected people of the state.

The free call center number 1949 will help the affected people to trace the mobile of the customer where it was seen last.

"Reliance call center will immediately provide them the last location where this mobile was radiating, before it got switched off. This will help them to know the last seen locations of the person and some action can be taken accordingly," the company statement said.

In case the number belongs to some other mobile operator, Reliance will coordinate with that operator and get the details and share with them with the caller, the statement added.

The call center service will also provide updates on towers within the state.
