Jharkhand HC asks Centre to consider SOP on use of Aadhaar data to trace missing children

RANCHI: The Jharkhand High Court, while hearing a habeas corpus petition concerning a minor girl missing from Gumla district since 2018, has directed the state and Central governments to consider framing a clear Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) on the use of Aadhaar data for identifying and tracing missing children.

The petition was filed by the girl’s mother, seeking directions for her daughter’s recovery.

During Thursday’s hearing, a division bench of Justice Sujit Narayan Prasad and Justice A.K. Rai sought a detailed status report from the state government and police authorities on the progress of the investigation.

The state informed the court that an FIR had been registered on the basis of the mother’s complaint and that the probe is ongoing.
