The tech giant will collaborate with MeitY to expand its ‘Stay Safe Online’ campaign through a variety of initiatives, including cyber literacy programs, multilingual digital content on online safety, and educational content on how to navigate information online, IANS reported from New Delhi.
“With over 700 million Indians using the internet and the country driving transformative innovations with the power of digital technologies,” said Sanjay Gupta, Country Head and Vice President, Google India.
