Haryana News : Haryana has initiated the implementation of the Central Cyber Reporting Portal and National Cyber Crime Helpline Number 1930 to strengthen its fight against cybercrime.
Haryana News : This was stated by Additional Chief Secretary, Home Department, Dr. Sumita Misra, here today. She said that now citizens can also report incidents of cyber fraud, financial scams, identity theft, and online harassment through the portal (www.cybercrime.gov.in) or by calling the helpline number 1930. The move is expected to ensure timely complaint registration, faster police response, and better inter-departmental coordination.
Dr. Misra said that the Home Department has issued comprehensive cyber security directives to create a robust digital safety ecosystem across all government departments and citizen services. She explained that a six-point action plan has been drawn up for immediate implementation throughout the state. Under this framework, all digital literacy programs and public awareness campaigns at the state and district levels will now incorporate cyber security modules. Citizens will also receive enhanced support through the official “Cyber Dost” social media handles, which the Home Ministry’s cyber security wing will actively promote to ensure authentic information reaches the public.
The directives further emphasize that information about the helpline number 1930 and the cyber reporting portal will be prominently displayed at public information centers, police stations, government offices, and other state facilities. Cyber security awareness will also be integrated into all state government schemes and programs so that beneficiaries receive consistent guidance on digital safety. Alongside this, local administrative officials, educational institutions, and community leaders will work together to spread awareness at the grassroots level. Schools and teacher training programs are being mandated to include cyber security topics in their curricula, ensuring that digital safety awareness reaches both students and educators across Haryana. Dr. Misra emphasized that citizens should promptly report cybercrimes to improve chances of recovery and action against offenders.
