Gujarat to Launch Dedicated Cybercrime Unit to Tackle Rising Online Threats In a significant step towards bolstering digital safety, the Gujarat government has announced plans to launch a dedicated cybercrime unit aimed at addressing the growing menace of online frauds, scams, and digital security breaches. The decision reflects the state’s proactive stance in combating the sophisticated and evolving tactics of cybercriminals. Officials revealed that the new unit will be equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including advanced cyber forensics tools, artificial intelligence-based monitoring systems, and secure data analysis platforms. Highly trained personnel, including cyber experts, ethical hackers, and forensic analysts, will form the backbone of the unit, ensuring swift and effective responses to online threats. The move comes amid a surge in cyber-related offenses across Gujarat in recent years. Cases such as phishing attacks, online banking frauds, ransomware incidents, identity theft, and misuse of social media have seen a sharp increase, affecting individuals, businesses, and government entities alike. Law enforcement agencies have often faced challenges in tracking criminals who operate across state and national boundaries, making a specialised unit essential. The government also plans to train police officers across all districts in the latest digital investigation techniques. Specialised workshops will cover areas such as cyber forensics, secure handling of digital evidence, and identifying patterns in online criminal activity. This upskilling is expected to enhance the capabilities of the broader police force, ensuring coordinated action against cyber offenders. Public awareness will be another core focus of the initiative. The cybercrime unit will roll out statewide campaigns to educate citizens about safe online practices, including recognising suspicious emails or links, safeguarding personal information, and avoiding fraudulent transactions. Officials believe that prevention through education is as critical as investigation and enforcement. The unit will work in close coordination with banks, telecom operators, e-commerce companies, and IT firms to create an early-warning network for suspicious activities. Regular data sharing between these stakeholders and the police is expected to significantly reduce the time taken to identify and neutralise threats. Speaking about the development, a senior official said, “Cybercrime is a challenge that affects economic stability, personal security, and public trust. This new unit will allow us to respond faster and more effectively.” The cybercrime unit is expected to be operational within the year, positioning Gujarat among the leading states in India actively investing in digital security.
