Delhi Cyber Security Alert: Digital Breach in E-Rickshaw System Prompts Plan for CBRN Command Centre

Security agencies in Delhi have intensified surveillance after a suspected digital breach involving the city's e-rickshaw ecosystem raised fresh concerns over cyber vulnerabilities in urban transport infrastructure.

Officials are investigating the incident to determine the source and extent of the alleged digital intrusion. The breach has prompted authorities to review existing cyber security measures protecting smart mobility systems and other critical public infrastructure.

In response to emerging security challenges, the government is preparing to establish a CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear) Command Centre. The proposed facility is expected to strengthen emergency preparedness, improve inter-agency coordination, and enhance the city's capability to respond to both cyber and high-risk security threats.

The command centre will integrate advanced surveillance technologies, real-time monitoring systems, and rapid response mechanisms to improve overall public safety. Security experts believe the initiative will play a key role in protecting critical infrastructure against evolving cyber and hybrid threats.

Authorities have assured the public that necessary preventive measures are being implemented while investigations into the incident continue.
