Union Commerce Minister Suresh Prabhu and Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi launched a mobile application for tracking missing and abandoned children, today.

MOBILE APP TO LOCATE MISSING AND ABANDONED KIDS: REUNITE

The app, christened as 'ReUnite', is a collaboration between Bachpan Bachao Andolan led by Satyarthi and IT major Capgemini.
Missing children should not be considered as just figures as it's a tragedy for the parents whose lives are thrown off track after losing their loved ones, Satyarthi said.
Each missing child reflects hope and dream of family that loses them.
