Between January and April 2026, the Railway Protection Force (RPF) rescued and protected vulnerable children under which nationwide initiative?
Operation Nanhe Farishte
Operation Nanhe Farishte is the Railway Protection Force’s nationwide initiative to rescue and protect vulnerable children — runaways, trafficked minors and children in distress — found at railway stations and in trains. Between January and April 2026, the RPF reported rescuing thousands of children under this operation.
Operation Smile / Muskaan are Ministry of Home Affairs–led police drives for missing children, and Mission Vatsalya is a Ministry of Women and Child Development scheme; none of them is the RPF-run initiative.
Hence, the answer is Operation Nanhe Farishte.
