India Rolls Out Chip-Based ePassports

India has started using new ePassports with a special chip inside.

These passports are part of making travel documents more modern.

A company called Colorplast helped create the technology for these new passports, in collaboration with the government.

These ePassports should make it safer and easier for Indian citizens to travel, by being more secure and accepted around the world.
