What happened

SEBI (India's stock market regulator) launched a new investor awareness campaign called 'Samajh Se Investing Simple' under its Project Jagrook initiative. It also rolled out something called the MUST initiative and announced an official presence on WhatsApp to reach more investors. These steps are aimed at helping ordinary Indians understand investing better.

Why it matters

Many Indians lose money to financial fraud or make poor investment decisions due to lack of awareness. SEBI regularly runs education drives to help people spot scams, understand their rights, and invest safely. A WhatsApp presence makes this information easier to access for millions of Indians who use the app daily.
