Rapid urbanization in India has increased the frequency and complexity of emergency response requirements in urban areas. This paper explores the role of IoT-based real-time routing systems in enhancing emergency response efficiency within Indian smart cities. Through case studies and analysis, the paper examines the integration of IoT networks to facilitate faster, more reliable emergency routing. Challenges and future potential for these technologies are discussed, focusing on how IoT-based systems can optimize emergency response and improve safety in cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru.
