Reason:
In August 2018, severe flooding affected Kerala state in India due to unusually high rainfall during the monsoon season. Kerala's worst floods in nearly a century, over 330 people died while at least 661,000 were displaced and all 14 districts of the state, were placed on high alert.
Development:
Kerala IEEE chapter and other developers came up with a plan to coordinate all rescue and relief operations. There was no room for agile or scrum just git issues and git pull request and aggressive development. The site became helpful and still more people using the same website for requesting food and water. the developers work day night voluntarily.
