India Amends Telecom Rules to Curb Frauds

The Indian government has updated some rules to make phones and mobile numbers safer to use.

They added new systems to check if a mobile number is really owned by the person using it and to make sure second-hand phones aren't stolen or blacklisted.

This is to stop frauds and protect people when they use their phones for banking, shopping, or other important things online.

The rules also make sure that companies share important information with the government to help track and prevent frauds.

These changes are now in effect and will help keep India's digital world safer.
