India Faces Challenges in Cybercrime Complaint Resolution and Grievance Backlog
Cybercrime victims in India face significant challenges beyond reporting incidents, with 63% expressing dissatisfaction with police handling, especially during investigations. While access to reporting portals and helplines has improved, resolution rates remain low, as seen in the government's social media grievance panel, which has nearly 50,000 pending appeals. Delays and systemic issues, including bulk complaint filings by intermediaries, contribute to victims' frustration and hinder effective justice delivery in cybercrime cases.
