Delhi Police has launched a new “Lost Report” Android App which can be used to file report with Delhi Police if you have lost any article/document in Delhi . Earlier to file a lost report you had to go to the local police station and minimum 1-2 hours were wasted in filing a lost report . Like the police station lost reports , there will be no inquiry or investigation for such reports filed via the app , but you can use them as legal document wherever required . If you think that your belongings were not lost but stolen , then you will have to go to the police station to file a FIR .
After lodging the report you will get a LR no. which can be used to get the duplicate documents or for preventing misuse of the articles/documents (like in case of lost PAN card) . If you do not have Android smartphone , you can still lodge lost report online via Delhi Police website – Click here to file Lost report online .
“The app, Lost Report, was developed after complainants reported that a lot of time and patience went into getting complaints registered at the police station” said B S Bassi , Delhi Police commissioner .

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Question 01 : Why this application has been developed?
Answer : Delhi Police has consistently been adopting new
methodologies and technologies to enhance its
service delivery capacity. Our endeavour has been to
identify areas where newer means can help in
reducing public inconvenience.
Lodging a police report about a lost document
becomes indispensable where it is a prerequisite for
reissue of the lost document e.g. a passport.
Such losses are very often detected by victims after
a gap of time and even the exact place and time of
loss may also not be known to them. In particular,
persons travelling through Delhi or tourists rarely
find it possible to go back to the place where the
article or document may have been lost and lodge a
report in the Police Station for getting a new
document issued.
Therefore Delhi Police has decided to enable mobile
and web based reporting of such lost/missing articles
without the need to go to a police station. This
report can be lodged from anywhere in the world
and a printable digitally signed report is
instantaneously sent in response to the complainant.
