Oracle CEO Safra Catz on Wednesday met Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and discussed how Oracle can provide assistance with smart city apps to improve citizen experiences.

Safra discussed three mobile solutions - myOneCity, mHelp and mTourist - to help authorities provide multiple channels to address public grievances, be better prepared for natural disasters and improve tourism in the state.

"I am thrilled to have this opportunity to meet with the chief minister of Maharashtra to discuss his vision and priorities for the state and to discuss our nearly three decade's commitment to India. We have 38,000 employees and 700 partners in India and we are still growing strong," Catz said in a statement.

Citizens can take pictures, which will be automatically geo-tagged, and embed them within the complaint.

mHelp will provide citizens and city administration a comprehensive mobile solution for disaster management. The app will ensure timely alerts and response from government for much needed co-ordination between officers on the field and affected citizens.
