It is good that you have lodged the complaint.
Hope you have the copy also.
GO thru;

Section 108 in The Indian Evidence Act, 1872
108. Burden of proving that person is alive who has not been heard of for seven years.

The police should have acted also.

You have to file a suit for declaration (declaration of civil death) before a District Court in Delhi (probably Patiala House, since Mandir Marg may fall under its jurisdiction), based on the police complaint filed by you.
After hearing, the Court may pass a decree declaring civil death of your father.
Based on that decree, your mother has to approach the Department of Women and Child Development, Govt. of NCT Delhi for grant of Widow Pension. The Application Form for this purpose can be obtained from the following link.
