- Chandigarh, March 21- Haryana Police has once again set an example of a ‘proactive’ approach after it reunited four missing people, including two children and two adults, with their families in a span of just one-week.
- Giving this information here today, Haryana Police spokesperson informed that out of these people, who were from different states of Karnataka, Punjab and Bihar including neighbouring country Nepal, two persons were mentally-challenged who could share just ‘one’ word of information, which the Police followed as a lead and helped them to find their families.
- We strongly believe that a ‘proactive’ approach is must to achieve positive results. Our Anti Human Trafficking Unit (AHTU) team is in touch with most of the children’s homes in all the states and when the police learns about a missing child, we contact and counsel them and put our heart and soul in the process for positive results. Efforts are always on to trace as many missing children not only in the state but also across the country, he added.

The girl had informed only about her father’s name and village name in Nepal. The information was shared with an NGO in Nepal and then the girl was handed over to her father in the presence of Nepal Police on March 3, 2021.
- In another case, police traced a 6 year old boy, a resident of Jamalpur, Ludhiana, who went missing in August 2019 and was living in Gharonda Bal Ashram, Ghaziabad. Based on some important information provided, a photo of the child was sent to the family who recognized him as their own and finally handed him over to the parents.
