In Assam, the issue of missing persons has gained significant attention due to the rising number of cases, especially involving minors and women. Missing person cases are often linked to human trafficking, but some are also the result of family disputes, runaways, or accidental disappearances. The Assam Police have launched various initiatives to track and find missing persons, including increased surveillance and collaboration with neighboring states.
Additionally, special helplines have been established to report missing individuals, and awareness campaigns are being conducted to help families avoid becoming victims of abduction or trafficking. Despite these efforts, many cases remain unsolved, raising concerns over the efficiency of search and rescue operations.
