The Greater Chennai Corporation has announced that today is the last day for cattle owners to install microchips for their animals. Officials have warned that strict action will be taken against those who fail to comply with the rule.

The microchipping drive has been made mandatory to control the movement of cattle on city roads and to identify their owners. According to officials, cattle without microchips will be considered a violation, and their owners may face penalties.

The decision comes as stray cattle on roads have been causing traffic congestion, accidents, and inconvenience to the public. By implementing microchips, authorities aim to improve road safety and ensure better monitoring of cattle within city limits.

The corporation has urged all cattle owners to complete the process immediately to avoid legal action. Enforcement measures are expected to begin soon after the deadline.
