How government is tackling fraud calls issue and what citizens can do

The Department of Telecommunications, with Telecom Service Providers, has launched a system to block international spoofed calls, protecting Indian subscribers from cyber-criminals impersonating officials. Citizens are urged to report fraud attempts via the Chakshu portal, enhancing prevention and enforcement efforts. It will also help in safeguarding citizens from impersonation, exploitation, and enabling proactive action against potential threats.
