Maharashtra cabinet has decided to implement a cyber-security project worth Rs 837 crore due to increasing cases of cybercrime in the state.
Citizens could file complaints against cybercrime through a mobile app or portal.
After the implementation of the project, citizens will be able to lodge complaints through a phone call.
All complaints will be investigated with the help of advanced cyber technology.
The project will be implemented in the State by the Special Inspector General of Police (Cyber).
This project will include a Command and Control Centre, Technology Assisted Investigation, Center of Excellence, Cloud Based Data Centre, and Security Operation Centre.
The project will facilitate a state-of-the-art citizen-centric platform for coordinating complainants and technology.
All cyber police stations in all police commissioner and superintendent offices across the state will be linked with this platform.
