NEW DELHI: The security agencies are identifying sensitive locations that need Counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems protection. The exercise became vital in the wake of the threat of drone attacks, especially after the recent dropping of weapons by drones in Punjab, allegedly by Pakistan-based trouble makers.
The agencies are also working on getting mobile anti-drone devices that can be fitted into vehicles used by VIPs or that may be installed at crowded places when required, this newspaper has learnt.
The ideas were discussed earlier this week in the first meeting of a central committee that was formed on the instructions of Union Home Minister Amit Shah to study and analyse threats from drones.
