Meanwhile, while addressing the Question Hour session in the Maharashtra Legislative Council , Devendra Fadnavis informed that 41,193 missing children have been traced so far through ' Operation Muskaan ', while 4,960 women and 1,364 children have been traced under 'Operation Khoj' this year alone. The Chief Minister said that taking the missing cases seriously, ' Missing Cell ' has been established in all police stations and its responsibility has been handed over to senior women officers.

However, Leader of Opposition Ambadas Danve , while appreciating these efforts, raised the point that only finding people is not enough but concrete policies should also be made on social aspects like child marriage, human trafficking. The Chief Minister assured that the government will analyse these cases from a sociological perspective and take effective steps in the future. On July 11, Uddhav Thackeray took a swipe against the ruling Mahayuti government, saying that the bill should be renamed as " BJP security bill ". He further accused the ruling Mahayuti government of "misusing majority" while alerting that the government could "pick up" commoners and imprison them. "They can pick up anyone, including ordinary people, and imprison them. This bill is similar to previous acts like MESA and TADA. This bill should be called the 'BJP security bill' instead of the public security bill, as they believe speaking out against the BJP is tantamount to criticising the country. Currently, we don't support this bill," Thackeray, former Chief Minister of Maharashtra, told reporters here.

In Bareilly, Pakistan woman booked for forging Aadhaar, ration cards
A Pakistani national living in Bareilly on a long-term visa (LTV) has been charged with obtaining forged identity documents, including the Aadhaar and ration cards. A formal FIR has been lodged against the woman, identified as Farhat Sultana, at the Baradari police station of the district, officials confirmed. The matter came to light during an ongoing verification drive, initiated on the instructions of senior superintendent of police (SSP) Anurag Arya, that aimed at identifying people from Pakistan and Bangladesh, and the Rohingya community illegally living in the district. Sub-inspector Saurabh Tomar, posted at the Baradari police station, filed the complaint after uncovering the fraudulent documents during routine checks under Operation Khoj. According to the FIR, Farhat entered India on an LTV and settled in the Sufi Tola locality of Baradari after marrying a local resident, Shahid Khalil. Exploiting her status and manipulating official records, Farhat managed to obtain an Aadhaar card using fake information. She went a step further by portraying herself as the head of a family to get a ration card issued in her name, thereby gaining access to subsidized food grains and other officials are now investigating how a foreign national, who has not been granted Indian citizenship, managed to procure official Indian identification documents. The involvement of local officials or agents in facilitating the creation of these forged documents is also under scrutiny. SSP Anurag Arya said, 'Following the details secured under Operation Khoj, an FIR has been registered against a Pakistani national living in Bareilly on a long-term visa under BNS section 318(4) (cheating) and section 17 of the Citizenship Act, 1955. The entire matter is being investigated in detail. Strict legal action will be taken not only against the Pakistani national but also against those who assisted her in committing this fraud.'
