According to Police records at least four children go missing every day from Delhi. However child welfare organisation CRY contradicts this fact. According to their statistics almots 18 kids go missing every day. While the National Crime Records Bureau says 17,000 children are missing in India, a new RTI filed by the Bachpan Bachao Andolan reveals that the real number of missing children for just 2008-to-2010 was a staggering 1,17,000 more than ten times the current official figure. Families of the missing say the main reason for these huge numbers and inconsistencies is that the police are loathe to file FIRs on missing children often leaving them no option but to mourn the loss of their loved ones. Watch this NewsX special to know more about the facts on missing children in India.
