ANI, New Delhi. The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has taken suo motu cognizance of the increasing number of missing persons in Delhi. According to Delhi Police data, 807 people went missing in the first two weeks of January 2026 alone, including 191 minors and 616 adults. So far 235 people have been found, while 572 are still missing.
NHRC has issued notice to Delhi Chief Secretary and Police Commissioner in this matter and sought a detailed report within two weeks. The Commission said that if these figures are true then they indicate serious violations of human rights. This action has been taken on the basis of a media report published on 5 February 2026.
Last year in 2025, a total of 24,508 people went missing in Delhi, of which about 60 percent were women. Police traced 15,421 people, but 9,087 cases are still unresolved. Particularly worrying is the number of disappearances of adolescents, especially girls, which exceeds 5,000 annually.
