Says the Supreme Court of India. The chief secretary and the D.G.P had been summoned for giving a reply on October 30, 2014.
The state government had filed a mechanical reply with no solid action on the ground to prevent the missing of children. Hence the angry outburst of the court for not complying with its directives in this regard on a PIL filed by an NGO "Bachpan bachao andolan". As many as 10600 children have gone missing in the state of Chhattisgarh from 2011 to 2013 against which only 1200-1300 FIRs have been registered.
On October 18, 2014 the chief secretary had convened a meeting of senior officers in the secretariat and consulted them for the ways and means by which this menace can be contained as soon as possible. I have my own misgivings about the efficiency with which the state police can handle this issue in the near future in the absence of a clear-headed approach and strong motivation from the top to bottom.
