Hindustan Times  

Union minister for Railways, Communications, Electronics & Information Technology Ashwini Vaishnaw on Monday launched two new portals from the Department of Telecommunications to check cyber crime and financial frauds on Monday. The Digital Intelligence Platform is a backend module which allows real time intelligence sharing between law enforcement agencies, banks, financial intermediaries like PhonePe, telecom service providers, social media companies like WhatsApp and Telegram, and document issuing authorities. The DoT is also working on setting up a grievance redressal portal to report connections that were disconnected by mistake, and to return money in frozen accounts to citizens by coordinating with the Reserve Bank of India and the Department of Financial Services. The Sanchar Saathi portal was launched in May 2023 and its different portals allow citizens to report to block their lost or stolen mobile phones, know how many mobile connections are connected to each other using common KYC, and other things.
