Chaired a meeting with officers from the Department of Telecom and Commissioner @hydcitypolice, Shri @SajjanarVC_IPS ji, following their recent enforcement action against cyber fraudsters misusing telecom infrastructure, to draw key lessons and strengthen systemic safeguards.
The discussion focused on enhancing intelligence-sharing between telecom authorities and law enforcement agencies, and developing stronger regulatory mechanisms to prevent such misuse at the source — before enforcement intervention becomes necessary.
టెలికాం మౌలిక సదుపాయాలను దుర్వినియోగం చేస్తూ సైబర్ నేరాలకు పాల్పడుతున్న మోసగాళ్లపై ఇటీవల చేపట్టిన చర్యల అనంతరం,
@DoT_India
అధికారులు మరియు హైదరాబాద్ పోలీస్ అధికారులతో సమీక్ష సమావేశం నిర్వహించాము.
సైబర్ మోసాలను అరికట్టడంలో టెలికాం శాఖ, చట్ట అమలు సంస్థల మధ్య సమాచార భాగస్వామ్యాన్ని మరింత బలోపేతం చేయడం, అలాగే మూలస్థాయిలోనే దుర్వినియోగాన్ని నిరోధించే విధంగా పటిష్ట నియంత్రణ వ్యవస్థలను అభివృద్ధి చేయడంపై చర్చించాము.
సాంకేతిక వ్యవస్థలు ప్రజలకు భద్రతను అందించాలి… నేరాలకు మార్గంగా మారకూడదు.
సైబర్ భద్రతను మరింత బలోపేతం చేస్తూ, ప్రజల విశ్వాసాన్ని కాపాడే దిశగా ప్రభుత్వం కట్టుబడి పనిచేస్తోంది.

Excellent work by Andhra Pradesh CID & @DoT_India teams!
Acting on citizen-centric intelligence from the CHAKSHU module of DoT’s Sanchar Saathi, a joint operation in Visakhapatnam exposed illegal SIM box activity.
Follow-up raids across 6 states led to the recovery of 14 SIM boxes, busting an international cybercrime racket involving losses of nearly ₹20 crore in Andhra Pradesh alone. Sanchar Saathi has once again proven its value as a robust tool for decisive enforcement and a truly citizen-centric platform.
