Mysuru: Drones are back this Dasara and this eye in the sky will keep a vigil on the streets providing an additional layer of security. Four drone cameras will be fitted to Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) and Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) apart from over 60 CCTV cameras that will be a part of mechanised security monitoring this year.
Such aerial image-making has caught the fancy of professionals as well as lensmen. Although drones or UAVs were deployed earlier in Mysuru by the Police to monitor crowds and help maintain law and order during the Vijayadashami procession, the practice had been discontinued of late.
