New Delhi: With 807 people, mostly women and children, missing in the first 15 days of 2026, AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday expressed concern over the safety of vulnerable groups.He lashed out at the much-vaunted four-engine government of the BJP and said law and order in the national capital had reached an alarming breakdown, according to an AAP press release.In Delhi, 807 people went missing in just 15 days, with an average of nearly 54 missing every day, raising serious questions about public safety and security in the city.The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has expressed deep concern over the worsening situation and urged residents of Delhi to remain vigilant. The party’s national convener Arvind Kejriwal said that so many people have gone missing in such a short period of time, which is abnormal but deeply frightening.Sharing an X media report, AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal said, “In Delhi, 807 people, mostly women and children, have gone missing in just 15 days. These conditions are abnormal and very horrific. The safety of people in the national capital depends on God’s mercy. The BJP has complete power in Delhi at all levels, but why has Delhi become so unsafe?”AAP, meanwhile, appealed to Delhi residents to exercise caution. The party said, “In the national capital Delhi, more than 800 people have gone missing in the past 15 days, most of them young girls. All four machinery of the government have failed to ensure the safety of your children. So, take care of yourselves and your children. Law and order in Delhi is in the intensive care unit.”The party further stated that “807 people went missing between January 1 and 15. This means that 54 people go missing every day.” There is such a terrible character in Delhi, while the BJP, which has turned law and order into a plaything, is sleeping. “The party said, “Murder happens in broad daylight every day in Delhi. Criminals kill openly on the streets and run away, which makes no difference to Delhi Police Commissioner Amit Shah. The four-engine government is busy with ‘420’ politics and the people of Delhi are forced to live in the shadow of fear.” (Ani)
A little more than a year ago China Artificial Intelligence Laboratory Shock the world. DeepSeek has released two models that perform nearly as well as the best Western models but cost a fraction of the price. The market value of Nvidia and other AI infrastructure providers briefly fell as investors (wrongly) worried that demand for their products would slow in the face of such a leap in model-making efficiency. However, the new model called v4 released by the laboratory on April 24 received a cold reception. Why?

The latest version of DeepSeek reaches the same heights as its predecessor. According to tests conducted by the company, its most powerful “Pro” system performs only slightly worse than models launched by leading U.S. rivals three to six months ago. DeepSeek v4 is also very cheap for customers. The introductory offer puts it at a thousandth of the price of the best American models for certain purposes. Even after that rate expires on May 7, the v4 will cost one-tenth to one-quarter of its U.S. counterpart.
But unlike DeepSeek’s previous bombshells, v4 doesn’t appear to be cheap to build. In 2025, the lab is keen to point out, training its AI will cost around $6 million, well below current levels in the West. The lab’s technical white paper on v4 omits any estimate of this measure. The fact that there was a 16-month gap between v4 and its predecessor also suggests that it used a lot of processing power to train it.
The launch comes as China’s artificial intelligence field becomes increasingly crowded. DeepSeek faces increasing competition from other independent labs such as Moonshot and Z.ai, as well as Chinese internet giants. The Qwen series, made by e-commerce giant Alibaba, has been at the top of China’s charts for much of the past year. ByteDanceThe creator of TikTok and the maker of Doubao, China’s most popular chatbot. Dola (known as Dola outside of China) is extremely popular in Mexico, the Philippines and the UK, ranking higher than Google’s Gemini in the Apple App Store.
In China, much of the attention has shifted to AI-based applications. Alibaba is applying its Qwen model to other areas of its business, such as providing a “digital workforce” to merchants using its e-commerce platform. The country’s internet giants are racing to build AI-powered “super apps” Can facilitate a wide range of digital transactions. Merely smart models are not seen as a way to make money from technology.
At the same time, DeepSeek has had to contend with greater state intervention. The Chinese government has been promoting chips made by national semiconductor champion Huawei. DeepSeek reportedly tried to train new models on them, but ended up switching to Nvidia’s chips, adding cost and time. It seems unlikely that the government will give local AI companies a free rein anytime soon: On April 27, the government said it would block US social media giant Meta from acquiring Manus, another of the country’s AI darlings.
DeepSeek’s latest version fails to dazzle, and that’s nothing to lament. US lab Anthropic recently decided that its leading Mythos model was too powerful to be released to the public due to its hacking capabilities. In contrast, the documentation that comes with DeepSeek v4 makes no mention of security measures at all. If Chinese labs do catch up to their American counterparts, they may not show the same restraint.
