]]> Odisha Police launches cyber safety campaign https://publictrustofindia.com/2023/09/28/cyber-safety-campaign-2023-of-odisha-police-launched-in-bhubaneswar/ Thu, 28 Sep 2023 13:10:59 +0000 https://publictrustofindia.com/?p=5243 Bhubaneswar: Recognising the pressing need to address the growing threat to public safety from cybercrimes, the Odisha Police launched the “Cyber Safety Campaign – 2023” on Thursday.

This campaign is dedicated to raising awareness and educating citizens about the various facets of cybercrime and, more importantly, how to protect themselves from falling victim to these malicious activities, a release from the state police headquarters said.

In an era characterised by technological advancement and digital transformation, the realm of cybercrime has become a formidable challenge worldwide, and Odisha is no exception. Cybercrime encompasses a range of illegal activities committed through digital means, often with the intention to deceive, defraud, or exploit unsuspecting individuals.

These crimes can take various forms, including phishing attacks, online scams, identity theft, and more. Due to lack of awareness, general public are sharing their valuable bank credentials, personal information either to the cyber fraudsters or online.

The campaign was inaugurated with a Curtain Raiser Event held in Bhubaneswar today. The event saw the presence of Director General of Police (DGP) Sunil Kumar Bansal who launched the following components:

  • Logo: A unique emblem symbolizing the essence of cyber safety and security.
  • Mascot: An engaging character representing the campaign’s spirit.
  • Campaign Poster: A striking poster to be widely distributed across the state to promote awareness.
  • Theme Song: A catchy tune designed to reinforce key cyber safety messages in a memorable way.
  • 2 Cyber Safety Advisory Brochures: Informative brochures providing practical tips and guidelines on how to stay safe online.
  • Campaign Videos: Educational videos highlighting two critical aspects – one addressing fraudulent activities in the name of loan apps, shedding light on the dangers of such schemes, and the other addressing the grave issue of child pornography, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding our children from online exploitation. These videos aim to educate and empower the public to recognize and combat these threats effectively.

Presenting welcome address, Additional DGP (Crime Branch) Arun Bothra highlighted the importance of the campaign in Odisha. IG (Crime Branch) Shefeen Ahmed proposed vote thanks. Among others, Chief General Manager (CGM) of SBI Chandrasekhar Sharma, General Manger of UCO Bank and Convenor of State Level Bankers Committee (SLBC) Goutam Patra were present.

This campaign embodies the commitment to safeguarding the citizens of Odisha from the perils of the digital age. Through education and vigilance, we aim to create a safer online environment for all. The Cyber Safety Campaign 2023 seeks to engage citizens across all demographics, including students, parents, professionals, and senior citizens, ensuring that no one is left vulnerable to cyber threats. Furthermore, we extend an invitation to individuals who wish to actively participate in the campaign as cyber safety volunteers, aiding in spreading awareness and knowledge.

]]> Odisha Inspector of Police Joins CBI for Manipur Prob. https://publictrustofindia.com/2023/09/05/odisha-si-joins-cbi-for-manipur-probe/ Tue, 05 Sep 2023 13:17:40 +0000 https://publictrustofindia.com/?p=4027 Bhubaneswar: A police inspector from Odisha, Biswa Prakash Rout, has been deputed to the CBI headquarters in Delhi to be part of the team probing the Manipur violence.

Rout is currently posted in Mayurbhanj district.

The CBI had mobilised 53 officers, including 29 women officers, to probe cases related to the Manipur violence and also asked some states, including Odisha, to depute police officers to be part of the investigation. Last month, the central agency took over the investigation in 27 FIRs lodged in connection with ethnic clashes that claimed more than 160 lives in nearly four months. It has already registered eight cases, including two instances related to the alleged sexual assault of women in Manipur.

“We have relieved Rout to join the CBI immediately. After completion of his assignment, he will be repatriated to Odisha Police,” DGP Sunil Kumar Bansal told TOI.

The report further stated that Rout had applied for deputation in the CBI a few months back

]]> Harassment Slur: Angul DIG Brijesh Rai transferred to Odisha Police headquarters https://publictrustofindia.com/2023/08/22/harassment-slur-angul-dig-brijesh-rai-transferred-to-odisha-police-hqs/ Tue, 22 Aug 2023 18:33:27 +0000 https://publictrustofindia.com/?p=3394 Bhubaneswar: Hours after news reports about a woman home guard blaming Angul DIG Brijesh Rai’s wife for her suicide bid in which she lost both her limbs, the Odisha government on Tuesday transferred the 2009-batch IPS officer, hailing from Mau district of Uttar Pradesh, to state police headquarters, Cuttack.

The home guard, Souridri Sahu of Angul district, lost both her limbs as she attempted to end her life by jumping in front of a moving train after Rai’s wife allegedly dragged her out of the house holding her neck and abused her on August 4 for not cleaning her clothes.

In a letter to Homeguard DG Sudhanshu Sarangi, Souridri narrated her ordeal while alleging that she was forced to clean the DIG’s house, wash their clothes and also clean dishes. She accused Rai’s wife of beating and humiliating her for negligence in household works and threatening to get her dismissed from job. Souridri has demanded compensation of Rs 5 lakh and home guard job for her elder daughter.

The IPS officer, however, dismissed the allegations of harassment and attributed the victim’s drastic action to mental distress, owing to personal issues.
