New Delhi: With the advancement in technology, it has now become a bit easier to track and recover lost or mobile phones. Thanks to digital safety initiative “Sanchar-Saathi”, the Centre’s Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has crossed a significant milestone by facilitating the recovery of over 6 lakh lost and stolen mobile handsets.
The DoT’s move underscores commitment to protecting citizens’ digital assets and demonstrates the power of collaborative technology in combating cybercrime. According to the government, this initiative is helping recover one phone per minute. The facility of ‘Block Your Lost/ Stolen Mobile Handset’ empowers citizens to report, block, trace, or unblock lost/ stolen mobile across all Indian telecom networks.
