In a bombshell revelation shaking Madhya Pradesh politics, opposition leader Umang Singhar has accused the ruling dispensation of presiding over the disappearance of 55,000 girls over five years. Speaking in the legislative assembly, Singhar painted a bleak canvas of lawlessness, urging the government to wake up to the nightmare unfolding under its watch.
Breaking down the numbers, he cited 54,803 missing girls since the period began, including a staggering 13,146 cases reported in 2025. With crimes against women skyrocketing, Singhar questioned the efficacy of the home department, currently under CM Mohan Yadav. ‘Electoral bravado on nari shakti has proven empty,’ he remarked, as the reality on ground exposes systemic failures.
The leader’s sharp critique extended to a direct appeal: CM Yadav must intervene urgently, safeguard every daughter of the state, and ensure swift, harsh justice for the guilty. This isn’t just politics; it’s a humanitarian call amid reports of crumbling security nets.
On Girl Child Day, Jitu Patwari reinforced the message, hailing girls as society’s backbone who deserve respect, safety, top-notch education, and level playing fields. He pledged Congress’s commitment to fueling their aspirations toward independence and strength.
Madhya Pradesh’s law enforcement woes are no secret. Spate of recent crimes, dismal NCRB scores, and this missing persons epidemic have fueled Congress’s aggressive stance. As public discourse heats up, the government faces mounting calls for accountability and reform to restore faith in its promises.
