In Srinagar, given the prevailing situation, a joint control room has been established at the District Emergency Operation Centre (DEOC), located in the Office of the Deputy Commissioner, Srinagar. This initiative is under the overall supervision of the District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA), Srinagar.

According to an official order, the joint control room will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week (24x7).
