The Digital Shakti campaign was started in 2018 to help women fight cybercrime in the most effective ways. With the Digital Shakti campaign, more than 3 lakh women across India have been made aware of cybersecurity tricks, practices, data privacy, and technology usage for their benefit.
In March 2021, the 3rd phase of the Digital Shakti campaign was launched at Leh with NCW Chairperson Mrs. Rekha Sharma, Lieutenant Governor Shri Radha Krishna Mathur, and Jamyang Tsering Namgyal, MP, Ladakh. In the 3rd phase, the campaign developed a resource center to offer information on all the avenues of reporting in case women face cybercrime.
