Question

Read the following passage carefully.

Looking at the way cyber crime has been on the increase, the government recently launched a

mechanism under which people can file a complaint online and they will not have to visit a police

station. The government actually has also briefed the Supreme Court about this move and said that a

Centre Citizen Portal was being designed and any complaint pertaining to online crime, cyber

stalking, online financial fraud, etc., could be registered on the portal.

The portal shall facilitate online reporting of any crime by the citizen. The complaint could either be

made by the affected person himself or a good Samaritan who wants to inform an observed crime to

the police. The service will be particularly beneficial to women, senior citizens or other minorities by

providing them a convenient way to report the crime from the confines of their home or any cyber

kiosk.

It was further informed that each complaint shall trigger an alert to the police station or the SP's office

or the state level office for the police to take action on it. The police department in turn will be able to

view and act on it and have the provision to update the complaint status. The citizen will receive the

status update alert on his shared mobile number.
