According to NCRB data (2022), the total number of missing reports in Gujarat alone is 41,621.

Digital Desk: According to National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) data, the state of Gujarat has recorded over 40,000 missing women in the last five years.

7105 women went missing in 2016, 7712 in 2017, 9246 in 2018, 9268 in 2019, and 8290 in 2020.

According to NCRB data (2022), the total number of missing reports in Gujarat alone is 41,621.

Sudhir Sinha, a former IPS officer and member of the Gujarat State Human Rights Commission, stated that a missing person case is not treated as seriously as a murder case.

"Missing persons cases are just as serious as murder cases." When a child goes missing, parents may have to wait years for their child to be found. "Such cases are routinely dismissed by the police system," he claimed.

According to Dr. Rajan Priyadarshi, a former additional director general of police (DGP), the bulk of missing girls and women allegations are tied to human trafficking.

"When I was posted as the SP in Kheda district (Gujarat), there was a case where a daily wage labourer from UP abducted a girl from a poor family and sold her in his home state." She was employed as a farm labour there. "Although we were able to save her, a large number of such cases go unsolved," claimed the former DGP.

"BJP leaders talk about women in Kerala (The Kerala Story)," Gujarat Congress spokesperson Hiren Banker remarked, referring to the BJP government's Nari Shakthi campaign. But neither PM Modi nor Union Home Minister Amit Shah are bothered about women of their own state,” he said.
