The Law Minister said that the Cyber Security Act has been enacted to strengthen the security of the cyber world and increase its scope by reducing the misuse of the Digital Security Act.
He also said, ‘In the very beginning of the implementation of digital security laws, we see some abuse or misuse. This I have never hesitated to frankly admit and never will. At that time, we took several important steps to prevent abuse of this law. As a result, the abuse of this law is reduced a lot.
