Rajasthan Chief Secretary V. Srinivas and Director General of Police Rajiv Kumar Sharma on Monday, 5 October 2026, conducted a joint inspection of the Cyber Crime Police Station at the Jaipur Police Commissionerate, reviewing the state's preparedness and operational mechanisms to counter the rising threat of cybercrime. The visit underscored the administration's position that speed is the decisive factor in recovering defrauded funds.

Every Minute Counts: Chief Secretary's Key Directive

Chief Secretary Srinivas stressed that the initial stage of any cyber fraud complaint is the most critical window for recovery. He directed officials to ensure that prompt, coordinated action begins the moment a complaint is received, bringing together police, banking institutions, and other concerned agencies to freeze or trace defrauded funds before they can be moved further.

He called for regular analysis of the time elapsed between receipt of a complaint and the corresponding action taken on the concerned bank account, noting that timely intervention significantly increases the likelihood of securing victims' money.

What the Inspection Covered

The Chief Secretary sought a detailed briefing on the end-to-end workflow at the Cyber Crime Police Station — from the initial receipt and registration of complaints, through FIR filing, digital evidence collection and analysis, to the progress of active investigations. He also reviewed the technical resources available and assessed the proficiency of personnel handling cyber cases.

Srinivas directed officials to ensure adequate resourcing and to strengthen arrangements for regular training and capacity-building programmes so that investigators keep pace with evolving fraud methods.

Abhay Command Centre and Helpline Operations

During his visit to the Abhay Command Centre, Jaipur Police Commissioner Sachin Mittal briefed the Chief Secretary on the functioning of the 1930 and 112 call centres and the action being taken on complaints channelled through these helplines. Srinivas directed officials to expedite every stage of the cyber-fraud response process — including immediate scrutiny of banking transactions, identification of suspicious accounts, necessary interventions, and tracing of the money trail.

DGP Flags Awareness and Coordination Drive

Director General of Police Rajiv Kumar Sharma said efforts to combat cybercrime are being continuously reinforced through modern technology, trained manpower, rapid-response systems, and stronger coordination between police and other agencies. He added that information on protection against emerging cyber fraud methods is being disseminated through multiple channels to keep citizens alert.

Sharma directed officials to ensure time-bound action at every stage — from complaint registration and FIR filing to securing defrauded funds and completing investigations.

Senior Officers Present

The inspection was attended by senior officers of the Jaipur Police Commissionerate, including Additional Director General of Police (Cyber Crime) V.K. Singh, Special Commissioner of Police Om Prakash, Additional Commissioner of Police (Law and Order) Ajay Singh, Deputy Inspector General of Police Kunwar Rashtradeep, Additional Commissioner of Police (Traffic and Administration) Pradeep Mohan Sharma, and Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime) Rameshwar Singh.

The high-level visit signals that the Rajasthan administration is sharpening its institutional response to cybercrime at a time when digital fraud complaints have risen sharply across the country — with state-level preparedness increasingly under the spotlight.
