Our Assessment
Gujarat has operating specialist cyber-policing and forensic capacity. A March 2026 parliamentary answer records 39 cybercrime police stations, one state FSL, seven regional FSLs and 47 district mobile forensic units, using data as of 1 January 2024. An Ahmedabad police announcement in December 2022 also described a station-level cyber help-desk rollout. These are relevant steps, but the measures are not interchangeable: specialist cyber police stations are not help desks in every ordinary police station, and general mobile forensic units are not dedicated cyber-forensic departments in every district. A current station-by-station help-desk and district cyber-laboratory inventory was not verified. The combined promise is Partially Done with medium confidence.
The reasoning behind the verdict
Why this assessment?
Reviewed
01 · Delivery status
Why partially done?
Specialist cyber and general forensic capacity exists, while both universal station-level help desks and district-specific cyber forensics remain unverified.
02 · Strength of evidence
Why medium confidence?
Parliamentary data directly establish facilities but use a January 2024 reference date and different facility types. The exact promised coverage is not reported.
What would help us reassess?
The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.
- An operational cyber help-desk inventory for every police station
- District-wise dedicated cyber-forensic facilities, staffing and equipment
- Commissioning dates and current caseload, turnaround and service-availability records
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes the evidence.

Promise Timeline
24 Mar 2026
Parliament published Gujarat's cyber police and general forensic facility counts, explicitly referring to 1 January 2024. The categories do not establish all-station help desks or a cyber-forensic department in each district.

At a public event, Ahmedabad's cybercrime DCP announced plans for help desks at all city police stations by January 2023. The announcement alone does not establish completed statewide coverage.
