Runaways, gone missing: Over 140 children rescued by Thane GRP in 2024

THANE: When six-month-old Rajiv was adopted by a young couple working private sector in the first week of August, Jyoti Kavare heaved a sigh of relief. Over 140 children rescued by Thane GRP in 2024 It was then the second week of February, and Rajiv was just a day old. “Though we handle many cases of missing children, Rajiv’s case was special because he was just a day old when we found him.” In fact, Rajiv was one of 140 children rescued by the GRP from Thane, Bhiwandi and Kalyan stations this year under the aegis of Operation Muskaan, an initiative of the Ministry of Home Affairs. “Each railway station has two constables dedicated for this work and women-related cases and they focus wholeheartedly on resolving them,” said Adinath Budhwant, assistant commissioner of police, Thane GRP. For instance, a nine-year-old boy from Assam who was rescued from Dombivli station six months ago has been languishing in a children’s home in Kalyan since then.
