The purpose of lost and found advertisements is to bring information of a lost or misplaced item to the notice of the public so that the person who finds it can duly inform the owner and facilitate its return. These advertisements are also published when an item has been discovered but its owner is untraceable. Here is why you should book your lost and found ads in newspapers:

1. Informs the Public
   • Lost and found advertisements bring the general public’s attention to the misplaced or lost item so that they can be on the lookout for it, and, if found, contact the respective owner.
2. Fulfils Legal Requirements
   • It is mandatory to publish a lost and found advertisement after filing an FIR with the police. This helps to prevent misuse of your property or documents if it falls into the wrong hands.
3. Helps to Facilitate Retrieval
   • Since publishing lost and found advertisements in newspapers informs people and gets them to be on the lookout, it helps to facilitate retrieval of the lost items or documents.
4. Enables Obtaining Duplicates
   • A lost and found advertisement in a newspaper, accompanied by an FIR from the police, qualifies as proof of misplacement and helps to make obtaining duplicates easier.
5. Wide Reach of Newspapers
   • In India, a large number of people across cities and villages read the newspaper. Newspapers are read by people from all walks of life.
