The Hindustan Times reports that the Uttar Pradesh government will purchase four anti-drone guns equipped with detection systems.
“The government has directed the state police and security department to strictly adhere to procurement norms and ensure that the allocated funds are fully utilised by March 31, 2026,” the article states.
“The procurement forms part of the broader police modernisation initiative aimed at upgrading surveillance, intelligence and response capabilities. With the induction of anti-drone technology, Uttar Pradesh joins a growing number of states and central security agencies deploying counter-drone systems to address emerging aerial threats in sensitive zones. The move is expected to significantly enhance layered security during VVIP movements and major state events.”
