The accident in Kerala has raised questions on Google Maps. Two doctors died in Kerala due to wrong navigation and now there is a demand in Parliament to bring a Swadeshi app. Bharatiya Janata Party MP (Maharashtra) Ajit Madhavrao Gopachhade raised questions on the safe navigation of Google Maps and said that two doctors lost their lives due to Google showing wrong navigation. Let us tell you that due to wrong navigation, the doctors drove the car into the river and died.

Ajit Madhavrao Gopachhade said that accidents are happening due to our dependence on Google Maps. Last year also a similar accident has happened in Uttar Pradesh, in which three people lost their lives due to Google Map showing the wrong route. Ajit Madhavrao said that in such a situation it is necessary that we make indigenous apps, which reduce dependence on Google Maps. New startups should be started in collaboration with ISRO.

By the way, India already has its indigenous map app, which is being used by millions of people. However, indigenous apps are less popular than Google Maps. If you want to use indigenous map apps, then you can think about these apps.

2. Bharat Maps
The National Informatics Center (NIC) of the Government of India has created this app and it is a multi-layer GIS platform. It uses reference data from the Survey of India, ISRO.

3. Navic App
