1. Introduction

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), commonly known as drones, are aircrafts that operate autonomously or are operated remotely without a pilot on board. The disruptive benefits of the drone-usage in various sectors has been recognized by the Government of India which has simplified the regulatory mechanism through notification of the Drone Rules, 2021 in supersession of the Unmanned Aircraft System Rules, 2021 for creating a regime of regulation based on trust, self-certification and non-intrusive monitoring, to empower the sector to fully realize its potential. Drones offer immense benefits to all sectors of the economy like agriculture, healthcare, mining, infrastructure, surveillance, disaster relief, transportation, geo-spatial mapping, forest and law enforcement, etc. Drones are fast emerging as significant generators of employment and economic growth due to their reach, versatility, and ease of use, especially in India's remote and inaccessible areas. The Drone manufacturing is expected to grow up to INR 900 crore by 2023-24 and the Drone Services Sector is expected to reach annual turnover of INR 30,000 crore by 2023-24 in India. The sector is expected to grow at Cumulative Annual Growth Rate of 15% or more till 2026. This growth is expected to unlock over a million job opportunities over the next five years.

Himachal Pradesh being a mountainous State with dispersed settlements is well suited to benefit from the Drone revolution. In coming years, use of Drones will revolutionize government service delivery mechanisms, project planning, execution and monitoring by overcoming the challenges posed in terms of access and difficult terrain.
