G20 meet: Chandigarh to be no-fly zone from March 27-Apr 1

In view of movement of VVIPs and foreign delegates in the city for the G20 meet from March 27 to April 1, the UT Administration has declared the city a “no-fly zone” for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), including drones.

According to an order issued by District Magistrate Vinay Pratap Singh, the entire city would be a no-fly zone for drones and UAVs from March 27 to April 1 in view of emerging threats due to recent terror attacks in which drones fitted with improvised explosive devices were used by anti-national elements and keeping in view the security of VVIPs and general public.
