Drones proved to be a boon to the delivery of life saving medicines and collection of blood samples from various parts of Kullu, Manali and Mandi during the rain disaster when roads were blocked.
The state government had tied up with Skyair, a drone company, to help in the delivery of medicines and collection of blood samples from remote and inaccessible areas. It was after devastating floods, which wreaked havoc on the basic road infrastructure in Mandi and Kullu, that drone services came in handy in supplying medicines and collecting samples.
