| Website for missing children launched
NEW DELHI: Missing children now have a new address.
An Indore-based couple has launched India's first Website
providing information on missing, lost or kidnapped children in
order to help their families and law enforcing agencies to trace
them.
The Website, www.missingindiankids.com, has listings under five
zones which are clearly marked on a map of India. Each listing is
accompanied by a photograph and identification marks of the missing
or kidnapped child along with other details.
The Website also contains a Web poster for each missing child to
enable people to take printouts and paste them in public places.
Sections like guidlines on prevention of child abduction and
steps to take in emergency situations are also provided.
Nidhi Bhargava, who alongwith her husband Anuj conceived the
idea, says the site offers an alternative and unconventional method
of locating a missing child.
It seeks to complement the conventional ways of tracing missing
people and is not intended to interfere with the system's procedure
or to promote false hopes among relatives, she says.
