A new chapter in India’s fight against cyber threats unfolds in Rajasthan, where cyber courts will soon operate in tandem with cyber police stations—the first such integration nationwide. Union Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal made the revelation at the Rajasthan State Legal Services Authority’s three-day conference in Jaipur, attended by Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma.
Welcomed with ceremonial honors, Meghwal praised the platform for tackling cybersecurity challenges head-on. In media interactions, he spotlighted how these events amplify awareness amid growing national concerns over digital crimes.
Sessions unpacked cybercrime varieties, from phishing to data breaches, while outlining detection, prevention, and response protocols. Meghwal highlighted misinformation as a primary vulnerability, referencing Delhi’s sustained campaigns. Empowering people through education is paramount, he reiterated, to preempt fraud losses.
The forthcoming courts, greenlit by the Chief Minister, will accelerate proceedings, benefiting countless victims. Legal luminaries and stakeholders enriched the discourse with practical advice during voluntary workshops designed for efficiency.
This pioneering setup promises seamless justice delivery, alleviating pressures on general judiciary. As cyber incidents proliferate with e-commerce and UPI boom, Rajasthan’s proactive stance exemplifies visionary governance. The conference wrapped up with optimism, armed with tools for a safer cyberspace.
