AR Rahman supports Sukma Police cyber awareness campaign

Oscar-winning musician AR Rahman has released a special video message to support the ‘Cyber Jagriti Abhiyan’ (Cyber Awareness Campaign) in Chhattisgarh, India. The initiative, led by the Chhattisgarh Police and the state government, runs from August 15 to October 2.

Following an appeal by the Sukma Police, Rahman’s message encourages the public to remain vigilant against cybercrimes, such as online forgery, and to practice safe digital behavior. Sukma Superintendent of Police Mayank Gurjar stated that the musician’s involvement is intended to help reach a broader audience regarding digital security.

The campaign aims to sensitize citizens on preventing online fraud. Authorities have urged the public not to share sensitive information like OTPs, PINs, or passwords with unknown individuals and to avoid clicking suspicious links. In the event of fraud, citizens are advised to contact the police or the Cyber Helpline at 1930.
