The drones are being used to prevent crowding in public places. The drones can continuously make announcements so that people would understand the importance of social distancing to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

“Results of the surveillance and the study conducted by the Zone 3 cops have shown positive results and more such studies will be conducted in coming days,” said Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Zone 3, Lohit Matani.
