Many Indian start-ups are showing keen interest in drones. One of the Bengaluru startup uses the drone in crop monitoring and spraying fungicides and herbicides when required. “Drones reduce chemical usage because you only spray when required. They can cover 12–13 acres a day, which is unmatched by human labour,” says Vasant Bhat.

As estimated, there are about 40,000 UAV’s in the country. Drones are used in various sectors from shooting ads and photographing weddings to tracking poachers, mapping railway tracks, surveying solar plants and for military and police surveillance. “Flying is synonymous with freedom,” the Delhiite adds.

“You have to apply your mind every time because the environment is different. You have to look for obstacles and orientation,” says Oauchotya Vashisht, drone pilot. Drones have also been used to cover live IPL in 2016 and covering 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

The thing is how difficult is it to be a drone pilot? There is a proper science and training behind this. But, India is still in the process of framing rules for drones.
