Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar stated on Thursday that the state is going to establish a drone pilot training college.
Mr Khattar stated that the training institute will be established under the Drone Imaging and Information Service of Haryana Limited (DRIISHYA).
On Thursday, the second board of directors meeting of DRIISHYA, headed by Mr Khattar, decided to establish the institute.
Officials informed the CM that a new corporation was needed to speed up the state’s transition to a UAV-driven manner of governance.
“This is a first in the state because now, with the help of drones, illegal encroachments can be controlled as well as detecting area expansion,” Mr Khattar said.
"Previously, manual surveys were conducted at regular intervals, which were very time consuming, costly, and required more manpower."
Mr Khattar directed staff to guarantee that surveys and imaging work were completed quickly, and that drones should be used in other departments such as urban local bodies, power, disaster management, mining, forest, transportation, town and country planning, and agriculture, among others.
