A schoolgirl from Tripura's Sabroom subdivision has gone missing after leaving home for private coaching on July 30. While another girl who accompanied her was rescued from a train at Sabroom railway station, the missing student remains untraceable. Police have launched an investigation and are probing a suspected "love trap" angle while examining her phone records and recent movements.

New Delhi: A schoolgirl has gone missing from the Palpara area under Thaibung Gram Panchayat in Tripura’s Sabroom subdivision after leaving home on the pretext of attending private coaching classes.

Police have launched an investigation after the girl’s family filed a missing person complaint.

According to family members, two schoolgirls left their homes at around 5:30 a.m. on July 30, saying they were going for private studies. However, they never reached the coaching centre, raising concerns among local residents and prompting their families to begin searching for them.

During the search, the guardian of one of the girls traced her to Sabroom railway station. She was rescued from a train moments before the Agartala-Sealdah Kanchenjunga Express was scheduled to depart.
