  • ‘Track Child’ portal that belongs to the Ministry of Home Affairs, but in that portal only police communicates with the police. So the Track Child is a limited portal.
  • Whereas everybody can participate in the new portal ‘Khoya-Paya’. The new Khoya Paya web portal establishes citizen to citizen contact and allows India to take part in search for missing children.
  • The Khoya Paya portal is a citizen based website to exchange information on missing and found children. It has been developed by the Ministry of Women and Child Development and the Department of Electronics and Information Technology (DeitY).
  • The Khoya Paya website is an enabling platform, where citizens can report missing children, as well as sightings of their whereabouts without wasting much time. The ‘Found’ children can also be reported on this web portal. The reporting can be done through text, photographs, videos and other means of transmitting and uploading information to the KhoyaPaya site. Information about missing and sighted children can be uploaded at Khoyapaya.gov.in.
