মোবাইল চুরি এবং ছিনতাই: বর্তমান পরিস্থিতি এবং পুলিশের ব্যর্থতা

By Parthapratim Dash
পশ্চিমবঙ্গ - মোবাইল চুরি এবং ছিনতাই এখন একটি সাধারণ ঘটনা হয়ে দাঁড়িয়েছে। প্রতিদিনই কোথাও না কোথাও এই ধরনের অপরাধ ঘটছে, কিন্তু পুলিশের পক্ষ থেকে প্রতিরোধের কোনো কার্যকরী ব্যবস্থা নেওয়া হচ্ছে না। অপরাধীরা নির্ভয়ে তাদের কার্যক্রম চালিয়ে যাচ্ছে, কারণ তারা জানে যে তাদের আটকাতে পুলিশ প্রায়ই ব্যর্থ। কিছু ক্ষেত্রে পুলিশের সক্রিয়তা দেখা যায়, কিন্তু অধিকাংশ সময়ই তা শুধুমাত্র  পিআর এর জন্য।  "নিউজ এটাচমেন্ট সোর্স - আনন্দবাজার পক্রিকা" রাজ্যের বিভিন্ন স্থানে এই ধরনের র‍্যাকেটগুলো গড়ে উঠেছে, এবং এগুলো কার্যক্রম চালিয়ে যাচ্ছে নির্ভয়ে। সাধারণ মানুষ ভয়ে ভয়ে রয়েছে, আর অপরাধীরা তাদের কাজ চালিয়ে যাচ্ছে। দুর্নীতি, অযোগ্যতা, এবং নিষ্ক্রিয়তা মিলিয়ে পরিস্থিতি দিন দিন খারাপ হচ্ছে। পুলিশের কার্যক্রমের ওপর নির্ভরশীলতা কমে যাচ্ছে এবং বাস্তবতা উপলব্ধি করতে হলে সাধারণ মানুষকেই প্রথম পদক্ষেপ নিতে হবে। মোবাইল ফোন চুরি বা ছিনতাইয়ের ক্ষেত্রে, বেশিরভাগ সময় পুলিশ সাধারণ ডায়েরি (জিডি) এন্ট্রি করিয়ে দেয়, যাতে ঘটনাটিকে মিসিং বা হারিয়ে যাওয়া বলে উল্লেখ করা হয়। এতে পুলিশের এলাকার ক্রাইম রে...

The Digital Age: How Vulnerable Are We to Cybercrime?

By Parthapratim Dash
In recent years, India has seen a significant increase in cybercrime activities due to the rapid growth of internet penetration. With the launch of Reliance Jio in 2016, the cost of mobile internet plummeted, making it more accessible to the masses. While this has led to a surge in the number of smartphone users, it has also resulted in a rise in hacking incidents. Before Jio's launch, mobile internet charges were quite high, with 1GB 2G data costing Rs.98/-* and 1GB 3G data pack costing Rs.155/-*. However, in 2023, 1GB 4G data now costs just Rs.2/-*. This has made smartphones and internet usage more affordable for everyone, but unfortunately, many users lack basic knowledge about the good and bad effects of the internet and how to stay safe online. While some efforts have been made to raise awareness about cybercrime in India, they have not been effective enough. Schools and public awareness campaigns are organized only once or twice a year in certain areas, and legal authorit...
