The government aims to enhance the country\u2019s cybersecurity framework and build a &#8220;cyber-secure Bharat.&#8221; The e-Zero FIR system is also intended to make recovery of defrauded money easier for victims and enable efficient legal action across jurisdictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An official statement highlighted that this initiative will electronically register FIRs regardless of the territorial location of the crime. Complaints lodged with the NCRP or via the 1930 helpline will be automatically routed to Delhi\u2019s e-Crime Police Station if they involve losses above \u20b910 lakh. The Zero FIRs will then be sent to the respective jurisdictional cybercrime police stations, and complainants must visit within three days to convert them into regular FIRs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Integrated Cybercrime Reporting System Aligned with New Criminal Laws for Faster Justice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The initiative integrates systems like the I4C\u2019s NCRP, Delhi Police\u2019s e-FIR platform, and the Crime and Criminal Tracking Network &amp; Systems (CCTNS) maintained by the NCRB. It is aligned with the new criminal laws, specifically provisions under Section 173 (1) and 1(ii) of the <strong>Bhartiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita<\/strong>. The Delhi Police and I4C have collaborated to ensure that e-FIRs are efficiently registered and transferred for timely investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The e-Zero FIR initiative, launched by Home Minister Amit Shah, auto-converts cyber fraud complaints over \u20b910 lakh into FIRs via the 1930 helpline or NCRP.
