In India, even cows to queue up for Aadhaar-like cards

Reportedly, these tags are tamper-proof and cannot be easily opened

Not just citizens, but cows in India will also be given the 12-digit unique identity. In an innovative move, the government of India has initiated a drive to tag AADHAAR-like identification numbers to cattle so that they are vaccinated on time and scientific intervention is made available.
