Samba: The Indian Security Forces’ officials on Friday told the media that “Security Forces in Jammu and Kashmir spotted four suspected drones at different places in the Samba and Jammu.” Security Forces in Jammu and Kashmir intercepted and brought down one suspected drone on July 15, which was flying near the Indian Air Force station in Jammu.

The incident comes just a day after the Union civil aviation ministry brought out new draft rules to ensure the ease of using drones based on “trust, self-certification and non-intrusive monitoring”.

The number of forms required to be filled to operate drones in India has been reduced to six in the draft ‘Drone Rules, 2021’, compared to the earlier requirement of 25 forms mentioned in the Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Rules, 2021. The fee for registration and approval has been reduced to nominal levels and de-linked from the size of the drone under the draft rules, the ministry said.

The draft rules also scrapped the requirement for various approvals, including certificate of conformance, certificate of maintenance, import clearance, acceptance of existing drones, operator permits, authorization of R&D organization, and student remote pilot license, an official statement from the ministry said.

A few days back – the Security Forces late-night detected an unidentified aerial vehicle which was a height of around 3 kilometers. Security agencies were able to jam the drone as soon as the ‘killer drone’ system was activated, causing the UAV to drop to the ground immediately.

On June 29 Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a top-level meeting to discuss the emerging security threats using drones.
