NEW DELHI: A five-year-old girl, who went missing in a fair while playing, was reunited with her family in Delhi, police said on Friday.

The girl, who hailed from Begusarai in Bihar, lost track of her parents in the Ramlila Mela in Dwarka.

Notably, Dwarka DCP Ankit Singh had set up 'Khoya Paya' booths across Ramlilas in Dwarka District through which police officials provided assistance to help reunite missing kids with their families.

In this particular case, multiple teams comprising Chowki Incharge Sector 10 Dwarka Sub Inspector Rajat Malik, head constables Kedar Singh Gurjar, Kamlesh and Shaitan Singh were formed under Rajesh Kumar Sah - SHO, Dwarka South police station and the guidance of Kishore Kumar Rewala, ACP Dwarka, to reunite the girl with the family.

The police personnel, who found a girl lost in the mela, carried the child to comfort her so that she could provide some information about her parents.

As the child was just five, she was unable to tell about her family properly.

Undeterred by the difficulties, pictures were displayed on digital platforms and display screens in the fair areas to ensure that families could quickly contact the official concerned.

The police teams made the announcements about the missing girl with pieces of information about the child.
