The government has already started the preliminary work to issue the new chip enabled passports. Soon, you will get rid of the booklet type of passport. Over 100 countries are using this chip enabled passport system, at last India is going to be one amongst them. The chip will include the person’s biometric details which are required to authenticate the person and the passport. It looks like India really serious about going into the digital era as most of the things nowadays have started going online.
