About Cyber Awareness Street Play Contest

The Ministry of Home Affairs has set up the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) under a Scheme to handle all the issues related to cybercrime in a comprehensive and coordinated manner. I4C has a National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal (NCRP) i.e. www.cybercrime.gov.in wherein all the complaints pertaining to cybercrime are reported by the citizens. I4C also has a helpline number 1930, wherein the financial cyber fraud complaints are reported by the citizens. One of the main objectives of I4C is to create an ecosystem for prevention of cybercrime and to provide cyber safety tips to citizens for cyber hygiene.
