The Rajasthan government has given its nod to open cyber police stations in all districts of the state.
Director General of Police Umesh Mishra on Friday said the Congress government has issued approval to open cyber police stations in all 32 districts to prevent cyber crimes and take effective action against cyber criminals.
A cyber police station is already being operated in Jaipur.

He, in a statement, said the officers and police personnel deputed in cyber police stations in the districts will work under superintendent of police of the district concerned, and officers and police personnel of cyber police stations of Jaipur and Jodhpur will work under the direct supervision of the DCP (crime) of the commissionerate concerned.
