#crime #cybrcime #cyberharassment

Akshay Kumar is called the Khiladi of Bollywood. Along with his acting, he is also known for fitness and discipline. He has always supported girls and has also motivated them for self-defense.

Recently, during a cyber awareness event, Akshay Kumar shared an incident of his 13-year-old daughter Nitara which shocked everyone.

Akshay Kumar told that his daughter Nitara plays online games. One day while she was playing an online video game, a stranger demanded nude photos from her. Listening to this dangerous incident, everyone was shocked.

This shows how much cyber crime is increasing day by day in India. Especially such people target children.

Because of this incident not only the family members were scared but it also became a big conversation topic that at school and at home children should be taught the importance of cyber safety.

What happened at Akshay Kumar’s daughter Nitara

Bollywood Superstar Akshay Kumar shared his daughter Nitara’s incident in a cyber awareness event. He told:

His daughter was playing an online video game.

At that time, one stranger asked Nitara whether she was male or female.

Nitara replied that she was female.

When Nitara said that she was female, the stranger asked her for nude photos.

Hearing this, Nitara got scared and immediately shut down her device and ran to her mother Twinkle Khanna and told her everything.

When Akshay Kumar came to know all this, he praised his daughter because she did not get trapped and shared everything at home. But at the same time, he became very stressed and worried about safety. Nitara was saved from this incident, but there may be so many children who can get trapped in such things.

Akshay Kumar’s Motive to share this story

Akshay Kumar could have kept this incident private because it was about his daughter, but he did not do so and spoke openly about it.

He told this story so that people become aware and what happened with his daughter does not happen with any other child.

If such a situation comes, children should also know how to tackle it — that is also why he shared this story.

1. Akshay said cyber safety is as important as Maths and History.
2. Nowadays children spend too much time online and easily get trapped.
3. Parents should talk openly with their children and tell them about cyber awareness.
4. Schools should also teach children about cyber safety, in fact there should be a separate subject so children can study it and protect themselves.

By sharing his daughter’s experience, Akshay Kumar has started an important debate on child safety which is very important for today’s digital world.

Online Harassment increasing day by day

This is not the first incident or story we have heard. Before this also many such cases have already happened where people became victims of online harassment.

1. According to cyber cell data, it has come out that more than 50% of children aged between 10 to 17 years have faced online harassment.
2. Nowadays gaming apps, social media, such things have grown so much which is why this crime is increasing day by day.
3. In many cases, children cannot tell their parents or anyone else and they keep getting trapped in it.
4. Because of such incidents, children go into depression and take wrong steps.

Akshay Kumar’s revelation is a wake-up call for parents.

Parents should follow these steps

1. Parents should always talk openly with their children.
2. They should make sure the child shares everything without fear.
3. Parents should not allow children to use phone, laptop etc. too much. There should be a limit.
4. Parental controls should be activated in the child’s device.
5. Children should be told about cyber safety.
6. Parents should tell that personal data should never be shared with anyone.
7. Play online games with your child yourself and see what kind of games they are playing.

Akshay Kumar’s demand for School

Akshay Kumar has demanded that cyber safety should be taught as a subject in schools. He said:

We teach children mathematics, history, geography and all subjects. Along with these subjects, we should also teach them the subject of cyber safety.

Many people were impressed with his statement and appreciated him. Schools should include digital literacy as a subject so that children can protect themselves and be safe from such crimes.

Cyber Crime Laws

India has made cyber crime laws so that children can be protected from such crimes. Under the Information Technology Act and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, whoever does such acts will get big punishment.

But the main problem is:

1. Children hesitate to speak about such things.
2. Parents feel embarrassed to file a complaint.

Nitara’s Response after the Incident

1. Nitara did not panic.
2. She did not argue with the stranger and immediately shut down her device.
3. She first went and told her mother.

Nitara’s courage is praiseworthy. Children usually get scared after such incidents and cannot tell anyone, but Nitara did not do that and handled the situation very bravely.

Akshay Kumar and Social Issues

Akshay Kumar always tries to make people aware about social issues through his movies as well as social media. He always supports such topics and advises people to be aware.

This story gave sadness to everyone’s heart but also gave a message that if such an act happens, what you and your parents should do.
