What's Happening in Delhi?

People have been disappearing from different areas of Delhi for the last 21 days. The most concerning aspect is that most cases show no clear pattern. According to police, 2-3 reports of missing persons have been coming in daily from February 15 till today.

The Statistics:

• 47+ - Total number of missing people
• 65% - Increase compared to last month
• 70% - Youth aged 18 to 35 years
• 60% - Men, 40% Women
• 0 - Concrete clues found so far

Shocking Cases That Stunned Everyone

1. Engineering Student from Rohini

22-year-old Aryan (name changed) left home for the library on February 24 and never returned. Surprisingly, he left without his phone and wallet, which was not his normal habit. The family says he had no depression or family problems.

2. Software Professional from Saket

34-year-old Priyanka (name changed) disappeared while returning from office. Her car was found parked near her residential society, but she was nowhere to be found. Her phone was found switched off. Police found her handbag and office ID in her car, making it clear she didn't leave intentionally.

3. 17-year-old School Student from Dwarka

Rahul (name changed) disappeared while returning from school after getting into an auto. CCTV footage shows him entering the auto, but the license plate isn't visible. The auto driver hasn't been found yet.

Latest Update: Police have formed a special task force today that will work exclusively on these cases. The Police Commissioner said they are investigating from every possible angle.

How Far Has Police Investigation Reached?

According to Delhi Police sources, they are working on these possibilities:

1. Organized gang - Is a new gang operating?
2. Human trafficking - Is this a new human trafficking network?
3. Cyber crime link - Could there be online traps involved?
4. Personal issues - Did people disappear due to personal reasons?

Police have said that no family has received any ransom call so far, which raises questions about the kidnapping theory.

What Do Experts Say?

Dr. Rajiv Saxena (Former Police Officer and Missing Persons Expert) says: "I haven't seen such a strange pattern in my 30-year career. Usually people disappear, but so many people in such a short time without any clues - this is very unusual. I think some organized group is working."

Dr. Anita Mehra (Psychologist) believes: "Post-Covid mental health issues have increased significantly. Some people might have disappeared voluntarily, but not all. And such a large number of voluntary disappearances also seems unlikely."

The Pain of Families

Amit Sharma, father of Aryan from Rohini, told us: "It's been 12 days. Our life has come to a standstill. Police are trying, but nothing has been found yet. Where is my son, how is he, who is he with - we don't know anything. We've lost sleep."

Neha from Saket (Priyanka's sister) says with tears in her voice: "My sister was always responsible. She never went anywhere without informing. She has a 5-year-old son who asks about his mother every day. What should we tell him?"

Police Helpline: If you have any information about any missing person or see any suspicious activity, immediately contact Delhi Police Helpline 011-23490234.

Several groups have also been created on WhatsApp where people are sharing information. Police have appealed to people not to spread fake news and share only verified information.

Breaking: According to some sources, police are also having to work on a cyber angle because some suspicious patterns have been found in the online activity of some missing people.

Political Reactions

This matter has also created a stir in political circles. Opposition parties have raised questions about Delhi's law and order situation. Meanwhile, the ruling party says that police are fully active and will soon solve this mystery.

The Delhi government has said that it will provide every possible help to the police. The CM office has also called a special meeting in which police officers and home department officials will participate.

Conclusion: What's the Way Forward?

Until a solution to this mystery is found, fear will remain in the minds of Delhi residents. Parents are worried about their children, and new questions are being raised about women's safety.
