Canadian NRI Recovers ₹65,000 Through Gujarat Police's Social Media Initiative
A Canadian NRI successfully recovered ₹65,000 from a Vadodara businessman with the assistance of Gujarat Police's GP-SMASH initiative. The NRI had lodged a complaint on X after the seller allegedly refused to return an advance paid for wedding attire. Despite time zone differences, the GP-SMASH team and Vadodara Police's cyber branch intervened to ensure the refund. This incident highlights the effectiveness of the police's 24x7 social media monitoring system, which has addressed over 650 online complaints.
