Discuss the challenges posed by emerging forms of cybercrime such as "digital arrests" and suggest measures to strengthen India’s institutional response to such threats.

Tips for your answer

  • Start with Context + Definition: Begin by briefly explaining what digital arrests are, citing the Supreme Court’s recent suo motu action — this sets a strong, current-affairs-based introduction.
  • Analyze Multi-Dimensional Challenges: In the body, go beyond technology — include legal gaps, weak cyber-policing, cross-border nature of crimes, and psychological vulnerability (especially of senior citizens).
  • Conclude with Reforms & Way Forward: End with actionable solutions — strengthening CBI’s cyber units, cross-border cooperation, AI-based fraud detection, public awareness, and digital literacy campaigns.
