According to his family, Bisht was working as a manager in a Thai restaurant in Mauritius. They claim that he had not informed them about any plans to take leave, contradicting reports that he had gone on vacation. The family was informed of his disappearance on September 28.

The family has also informed the local police about his disappearance. They are requesting the Indian Ministry of External Affairs to coordinate with the Mauritian administration and police to speed up the search.
The Indian media outlet India Today reported that the family had made allegations about the involvement of four men in Bisht's disappearance, but these claims have not been independently verified. The circumstances surrounding his disappearance remain unclear. The Mauritian authorities have not made any official statements about the case or the possible involvement of the individuals mentioned by the family.
The Indian government has been urged to take up the matter with the Mauritian authorities. The office of Indian Minister of State Ajay Tamta has reportedly sought intervention through diplomatic channels to ensure that the Mauritian authorities investigate the case. The family is anxious to get any information about Bisht's whereabouts and is counting on the authorities to help.
As the search for Bisht continues, his family is anxiously waiting for any news. They are relying on the Indian and Mauritian authorities to work together to find him. The case highlights the need for greater coordination between countries in such situations.
