The numbers worth having ready, for India and the United States. On a phone, tap a number to call it. Emergency numbers are shaded.
State pages list local numbers only. The national numbers (112, 100, 181, 1098, 1930 and the rest) work in every state and are under India.
Checked September 2026. Every number was compared against at least one published source: a government or agency page where one was reachable (AIIMS, the Ministry of Women and Child Development, the Ministry of Social Justice, SAMHSA, FEMA, the FTC, the 988 Lifeline, the Crisis Text Line, the National Domestic Violence Hotline, several state and district government pages), otherwise a news report or a directory listing. The state and city lines that rest mostly on news and directory listings are the most likely to have changed, for example the GHMC call centre, the Mumbai railway police line and the Chennai and Bengaluru civic lines. Confirm on your bill or the official site before depending on one. Other states, and other cities in these six, are not listed yet.
