Two 11-year-old cousins missing after leaving for school in Kanpur
The Story in Brief
Two 11-year-old cousins who left home for school on Thursday, 5 November in Kanpur's Jarouli area have been missing since morning. The boys, Abhinav and Nirmit, both Class 6 students at a local school, did not reach school. The school management alerted their families around 9 am. A search by relatives failed to find them, and a police complaint was filed in the evening.
CCTV footage from near the school shows the two walking together. Amar Ujala reports they were seen on camera heading towards the school. Dainik Bhaskar adds that the boys got off an e-rickshaw at the school gate and told other children they were going to fetch something, then did not return. Police teams are searching for them. A tablet the boys had with them has also not been found.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both Amar Ujala and Dainik Bhaskar cover the disappearance of the two Kanpur cousins as straight factual reports with no discernible editorial slant. Amar Ujala leads with the boys leaving home and the family's fear of foul play, while Dainik Bhaskar adds the specific detail that the boys got off an e-rickshaw at the school gate and told friends they were going to fetch something before vanishing. Neither source attributes blame or suggests negligence. The core facts match across both reports. The story remains open: the boys have not been found as of late Thursday night, and police continue their search.
