Of course it’s well known that Hindus respect, if not
actually worship, cows. And that cows wander the
streets. And that they’re pretty big. It’s also
well-known that India is a center of high-tech.
Thankfully, these two phenomena have met each other
and presented a solution.
Authorities in New Delhi have started inserting
microchips into cows to tackle the problem of cattle
roaming freely in the streets, officials said on
Thursday, August 11.
The move came after the Delhi High Court slammed civic
authorities this month for failing to round up cows --
considered holy by Hindus.
There are an estimated 35,000 cows and buffalo in the
capital and its surrounding areas.
"Now with a microchip in them, cows can be caught more
quickly," said one official.
Now if we could only do same thing with politicians….
