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

Every year, In India,around 44,000 children go missing in the country, of whom just 11,000 are rescued.

Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi said that 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.

“Each missing child reflects hope and dream of family that loses them,” he said.

The reUnite app will use Amazon Web Services based on face recognition technology to match the photos of missing children with a database to give result after face matching.

The app will be connected with missing children’s database of Delhi Police.

It’s a multi-user platform which can be used to upload photos of missing children.

Parents of missing children will be able to report details of such children.
