The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the relevance, importance, and adoption of Drones, primarily because of its growing applications in a variety of operations such as crowd control, disinfection of public space, enhanced situational awareness in rural areas, mobilizing essential medical supplies and samples, etc.
The absence of a supportive UAV ecosystem and homeland security concerns were the main factors behind the restricted use of drones for commercial applications in India. The New Drone Rules 2022 by the Government of India is based on a premise of trust, self-certification, and non-intrusive monitoring while balancing safety and security considerations.
The Centre's initiative of 'Kisan Drones, SVAMITVA and mandatory use of drones to monitor national highway projects will establish the use cases of drones in India to address the key challenges.
The drone industry is aimed to be the significant creator of employment and driver of economic growth due to its reach, versatility, ease of use, and benefits across sectors such as Infrastructure, Healthcare, Agriculture, Oil, Gas, Power Utilities, Environmental Monitoring & Wildlife Conservation, etc., including Defence.
