About This Trend
Dog Babu is a pet dog in Patna, Bihar, India, who has been issued a residence certificate by the local authorities.
According to Times of India, Dog Babu's certificate was issued with his name, photograph, and address, as well as the names of his 'parents', Kutta Babu and Kutiya Devi. The incident has sparked controversy and an investigation has been launched to look into suspected system breaches. The certificate has also been criticized by Yogendra Yadav, who pointed out that while this may be acceptable in Bihar's System for Interconnected Registration (SIR), it is not acceptable for an Aadhar card. A feature article provided coverage of the incident and its aftermath.
