Vodafone to provide RFID ID tags for children

Vodafone Idea has signed a partnership deal with the Mysuru City Police Department, to ensure a safe Navaratri festival for tourists visiting the Mysuru Palace during Dasara 2018. All children under 14 years of age are being protected with Vodafone Happy Cards (RFID radio-frequency identification) tags that are hung on their neck at any of the three entry points to the Mysuru Palace, ensuring their movements and location remain tracked till the time they return to the entry/exit point. This initiative is being done to help prevent incidents of children getting lost during the annual Mysuru Dasara festivities.
