Nearly six months after he went missing, 16- year- old Tarun Gupta's parents have been forced to suspend their search amid the 21- day Coronavirus lockdown.

Last week, Vinod Gupta once again went on the Pune- Nasik- Mumbai circuit to look for Tarun. While two of his friends headed towards Delhi, Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan. "They are stuck in Amritsar because of the lockdown," said Gupta. " Because of Coronavirus, all shops and eateries are shut. What will my son eat or drink? Earlier people would help him with food and water. It might be easier to spot him since roads and public spaces are empty. But we cannot venture out."
