The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) on Thursday (May 1, 2025) issued notice to Madhya Pradesh government over an incident in which police has failed to find a six-year-old girl who went missing from an underbridge in Koh-e-Fiza area in Bhopal, 18 days ago.
According to media reports, the girl’s homeless mother with eight children suspects the involvement of one of the relatives in the disappearance of her daughter, but the police are not conducting a fair investigation, and no arrests have been made yet.
The Commission also noted reports that showed that this is not just one case of disappearance, as over 3,400 women and girls have gone missing in the State during the last three years, as per the data of the Madhya Pradesh Police. Also, the CCTV networks in the State are patchy, rapid-response teams are missing in action, and there is no coordination between the units. A drive under the name ‘Operation Muskan’ launched last year by the State police to rescue and rehabilitate the missing girls has not shown any results.
Observing that the incident raises a serious issue of violation of human rights of the minor girl and her mother, the NHRC had issued notices to the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police, Government of Madhya Pradesh, calling for a detailed report in the matter within two weeks.
