The policy is projected to create more than 1,000 jobs in the city. The government plans to set up drone research clusters, flight testing facilities, and offer subsidies and state GST reimbursements. Nearly 60 per cent of Delhi is a no-drone zone because of VIP installations, which the policy will account for. Drones will be used for policing, disaster management, and traffic control. The policy also includes school awareness programmes and remote pilot training organisations. ## Coverage - timesnownews.com - rediff.com Tags: cabinet approval, Delhi, drone policy, jobs, regulation, technology Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/delhi-drone-policy-to-create-1000-jobs-cabinet-nod-in-month/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
