Mandatory Pre-Installation of Sanchar Saathi App Lifted
The Indian Government has removed the requirement for smartphones to have the Sanchar Saathi app pre-installed, although it continues to encourage its use for cyber security. Initially mandated to improve access to cyber safety, the app has seen 1.4 crore downloads, reporting 2000 fraud incidents daily. Despite its rapid adoption, with 6 lakh new users in a single day, the government has decided to make the pre-installation optional, reflecting growing trust and acceptance among users.
