Cybersecurity, TRAI, and Digital Rights: An Awareness Session at Parul University!

On 24 September 2026, Parul University held a session titled 'Information Technology Is Like Oxygen, But Who Protects Your Rights?' on cybersecurity, telecom consumer rights, and the responsible use of technology. A senior Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) officer, two former Members of Parliament, a corporate trainer, and a Vodafone Idea customer-service leader each approached one question from a different side: how to stay safe, informed, and in control in a world that runs on mobile networks and data. This page covers the session, with a dedicated page for each speaker below.

Cybersecurity - Careers, TRAI & Digital Rights at Parul University!

Data, AI & Speakers!

Most people in the auditorium had a phone in their pocket, and few had thought about who protects them when something goes wrong with it. Organised by Parul University, the session set out to close that gap between using technology and understanding it, as a conversation rather than a lecture, with students repeatedly asked to examine their own habits around phones, data, and artificial intelligence.

The speakers

  • Mr. J.P. Garg Joint Advisor, TRAI Regional Office, Jaipur: On the telecom network, scams, consumer safeguards, and redressal (LinkedIn not available)
  • Shri Ramjibhai Mavani, former member of Parliament (Rajkot) and consumer-rights advocate: On digital rights and the value of skill
  • Mrs. Ramaben Ramjibhai Mavani Patel, lawyer and former Member of Parliament (8th Lok Sabha, Rajkot), shared words of encouragement to students!
  • Shri Rohit Dave, international motivational speaker and soft-skills trainer, former GSFC manager, shared views on career growth and commitment
  • Mr. Saagar Tyagi, Assistant General Manager, Revenue and Retention, Vodafone Idea: On customer service and spam protection

The message for students!

A phone is a right, and the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India, the independent body, is behind that right. All operators shall have a complaint procedure in place with a docket number, a time limit, and an appeal. The rules of how to stay safe as a user are quite simple and repeatable: turn on two-factor authentication, don’t give away an OTP, don’t click on a link that doesn’t seem to make sense, and don’t fall for any message promising easy money or a prize. In addition to safety, the speakers agreed that not only a degree but also skill, initiative, and commitment will make the difference for a student’s future. If you’re passionate about technology, explore B.Tech in Information & Technology, and if you wish to launch your career in law, delay no more and pursue Parul University’s BA LLB program and get placed nationally & internationally!

FAQs

It took place on 24 September 2026 as an awareness session with a senior officer of TRAI, two former Members of Parliament, a corporate trainer, and a Vodafone Idea customer-service leader.

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) is an independent body, created by an Act of Parliament in 1997 to regulate this sector for its development and consumer protection. It lays down guidelines for commercial messaging, planning rates and complaint redress, and conducts consumer awareness campaigns from its offices.

Use double authentication for all accounts; never share an OTP with anyone, as no bank will require it; check who is sending you links before clicking on them; don't respond to messages promising prizes, dates, or easy money; remember that once something is posted on the Internet or fed into an artificial intelligence tool, it is outside of your control. Complaints about telecom services may be made with the operator and appealed to its appellate authority.
