In
an effort to promote and educate the youth about staying smart, safe and savvy
online, Google India today announced the launch of the second edition of the

communities to highlight the importance of Internet safety and being good
digital citizens.
As
part of the competition, students across the country are invited to create,
innovate and submit their creative ideas in various categories in the form of

involving a video, website, app or even design a poster to educate and spread
awareness around digital safety.

year, kids from across the country amazed us with their innovative and
inspiring submissions. The Web Rangers contest is a platform to enable these
young adults to become good digital citizens and empower their friends and
families to have a safer and meaningful digital experience. ” said Sunita
