It looks like the name Gumshuda might mean "missing" or "lost."

Gumshuda seems to be the name of a program for trying to locate missing people. It was mentioned in an article that talks of Punjabi men being forced by the Indian government to work as spies in Pakistan.

GURDASPUR'S MISSING MEN

Investigation: Intelligence agencies force them into spying,say the women of the district in Punjab. In most cases, they die or are jailed in Pakistan.
...
When men in border villages of Punjab disappear, their families don't approach the police or run photographs on Gumshuda, a programme Doordarshan hosts to track down the missing. [snip]
