New Delhi: Considering the growing menace of cyber crimes targeting children, child victims can now lodge their complaints at National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR)’s POCSO e-box.
NCPCR has enhanced the scope of POCSO e-box to handle cyber bullying, cyber stalking, morphing of images and child pornography, a Ministry of Women and Child Development statement said here today. According to the ministry, the victims or their friends, parents, relatives and guardians can make complaints by pressing the e-box button available at the Commission’s website.
They can also register their complaints on email id ([email protected]) or by contacting on 9868235077. Developed by NCPCR, POCSO e-box is an easy and direct medium for reporting of child sexual abuse under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012. It was launched by Women and Child Development Minister Maneka Sanjay Gandhi last year. (UNI)
