Radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags will be
introduced in all government maternity hospitals within a fortnight to protect newborn babies, according to Minister for Health Kamineni Srinivas. Talking to the media after restoration of male infant to the parents in the Government General Hospital here on Saturday, Mr. Srinivas said the introduction of the tagging of newborn infants was delayed because it was challenged in court. The stay on RFID tagging was vacated recently and system would be introduced on a pilot basis in the Guntur General Hospital.
