Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Thursday said his government has formed a “drone corporation”, which will help departments in getting an aerial survey of various activities done.

The aerial survey of the law and order situation, forests, agriculture and other activities can be done under the initiative.

Under the programme, 100 drones will be procured in the first phase. The equal number of drones will be procured in the next phase, he told reporters here on the completion of 600 days of the BJP-JJP government.

Any government department can approach the Drone Corporation of Haryana for an aerial survey, he said.
