Prayagraj : Led by the CM Yogi Adityanath , the state govt is implementing a cutting-edge lost-and-found system for the Maha Kumbh , ensuring that every visitor—especially children and elderly—is safeguarded, and no one gets separated from their loved ones. These centres will feature digital registration for anyone who goes missing, allowing families and friends to locate them more easily. The technology will prevent missing cases and also reunite families if somehow, a person is lost in the fair.

The Prayagraj Mela Authority and the Police Department are collaborating on establishing an innovative pilgrim registration system to curb missing cases. This initiative is a seamless blend of security, responsibility, and technology, promising to make the Maha Kumbh Mela a safe and memorable experience. Announcements will also be made at the centres for all missing individuals.

Every lost person will be promptly registered, and their details will be shared across other centres and social media platforms like Facebook and X (formerly Twitter). This initiative will not only make the Maha Kumbh Mela safer but also help families reconnect with their loved ones quickly and easily. If a lost individual remains unclaimed for 12 hours, the police will step in and ensure they are taken to a safe place.
