A citizen-centric project of the Indian Department of Telecommunications (DoT), the Sanchar Saathi app tries to empower mobile users, improve their security, and increase public knowledge of government programs. It is accessible as a web portal as well as a mobile app.
Using the Chakshu feature, users can report suspected fraudulent calls, SMSs, or other communications pertaining to financial fraud, cybercrime, impersonation, or other misuse. This covers messages involving impersonation of banks, government representatives, or other organizations. Locating Mobile Connections in Your Name: To help stop illegal use, citizens can utilize the software to locate and control every mobile connection stored in their name. Blocking Stolen or Lost Cell Phones: The software enables customers to promptly block their stolen or lost cell phones, preventing them from being used in India.
By using the software, users can make sure they are not buying fake goods by confirming the legitimacy of their mobile devices. Additional Features: In addition to these features, the app provides awareness campaigns on avoiding telecom scams and other messages linked to fraud.
