Summary:
We note mobile phone numbers of families and when a person is found, we contact them with that information in hand. Internet has not been running up to mark for past two days on my phone either,” said Tiwari.“There is no electricity at the Kumbh Mela camps through the day. We have not used the government website or the smartphone application for lost-and-found, since our traditional way is a trustworthy and proven method. If we cannot get through a phone, we provide the details of the person to the police to take forward the missing person case,” said Ugaonkar. Their families follow these announcement back to the camp..
