Niti Aayog is developing a multi-ministerial action plan to protect India's senior citizens from digital scams, including 'digital arrests.' The proposed policy roadmap aims to enhance digital literacy, strengthen security systems, and improve coordinated support for the elderly. This initiative addresses a significant rise in digital fraud cases, with the Supreme Court noting over ₹3,000 crore lost. The Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment will oversee implementation, with potential budget allocations in 2026-27.
