Cybercrime hotlines in Bengaluru remain unreachable amid rising cases

The IT hub of India faces a strange kind of predicament. Despite increasing cybercrimes in Bengaluru, almost all the hotlines meant for reporting them are either switched off or just keep ringing.

Incidentally, according to the Bengaluru City Police website, India’s first Cyber Crime Police Station was started in CID, Bengaluru way back in 2001.
