Ban imposed on use of drones in Rajouri

Jammu, July 01, 2021 (PPI-OT):After failing to implicate Pakistan in the fake drone attack on an Air Force Station in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the authorities to dispel their sense of embarrassment have imposed a ban on the storage, sale or possession and use and transport of drones. An order issued by District Magistrate, Rajouri, Rajesh Kumar Shavan also directed those having drones or drone-like objects in their possession to deposit the same with local police station. However, the government agencies using drones for mapping, surveys and surveillance would get the local police station in-charge and executive magistrate informed, Shavan said in his order.

 

The district magistrate in his order said it has been observed that drones and flying objects were misused to cause damage, injury and risk to the human lives in certain parts of IIOJK. Whereas, it has also been noticed that for the last 10-15 years, the domestic use of small drone cameras has also increased in the society across the occupied territory for capturing photos and videos in the social and culture gatherings and particularly the youth are more fascinated to have use of drone like toys and electronic gadgets, he added.
