New Delhi: No Lack of Mayhem in Afghanistan in the last few days.
With the Taliban grab control over the country, there is fear and panic in the large part of the population.
In such a way that people desperately looking to escape from the country and come to their help are Google and WhatsApp.
According to a report by MIT Review, network network, which includes journalists, government officials and non-profit organizations have organized an online Afghanistan list that might qualify for settlement programs exceeding slow processes, the government.
What some groups do is that they are looking to trim information about road conditions.
They worked in identifying and helping Afghans came to Kabul from various provinces.
Some are also looking for aircraft charter for airlifts.
And this is where the Google form enters.
“If you have someone in Kabul who can get to the airport at the end of the week, please enter information here to share with the EVAC air company and the Department of Foreign Affairs,” said one of the Google form circulating online.
Google forms are mostly easily shared and have a series of special questions that people have to answer.
In the form, the details of the required Afghans include contact information, ID cards, resettlement details, passport numbers.
Similar details are being distributed on WhatsApp, which is also used to share documents, personal information because it is faster to share information through messaging applications.
The report also said that some of them were carried out by the US State Department, which also urged people not to use emails to share the information.
While people like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube have taken steps in fighting this problem, handling the Taliban takeover will be a big challenge.
Social media opportunities used for incorrect reasons remain high up to large social media companies to handle challenges effectively and efficiently.
But clearly, social media is also used to help Afghans during difficulties and needs.
