The document outlines key details from the draft Unmanned Aircraft System Rules, 2020 released by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) of India. Some of the major points covered in the draft rules include requiring prior authorization for manufacturing, importing, owning and operating drones; eligibility conditions for authorization; insurance requirements; rules around carrying payloads and restrictions on photography; and the framework for establishing drone ports and corridors. The document also discusses definitions related to unmanned aircraft systems and drones, categories of drones based on weight, and potential future areas where drones may be used such as for BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight) operations and delivery of goods.

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a Drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot on board. UAVs can be remote controlled aircraft (e.g. flown by a pilot at a ground control station) or can fly autonomously based on pre-programmed flight plans or more complex dynamic automation systems
A UAV is defined as being capable of controlled, sustained level flight and powered by a jet or reciprocating engine. In addition, a cruise missile can be considered to be a UAV, but is treated separately on the basis that the vehicle is the weapon.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are aircrafts that fly without any humans being onboard. They are either remotely piloted, or piloted by an onboard computer. This kind of aircrafts can be used in different military missions such as surveillance, reconnaissance, battle damage assessment, communications relay, minesweeping, hazardous substances detection and radar jamming. However they can be used in other than military missions like detection of hazardous objects on train rails and investigation of infected areas. Aircrafts that are able of hovering and vertical flying can also be used for indoor missions like counter terrorist operations

Drones are a different kind of new technology from what we’re used to. They offer something else: the conquest of physical space, the extension of society’s compass, the ability to be anywhere and see anything.
For the past few years, one of the most exciting class of gadgets on display has been drones. They got cheaper, lighter, and easier to use even as they became more powerful.
We believe 2015 is an important year for drones as they will change how brands interact with consumers in both advertising and events, and here's everything you need to know about the drone technology.

Drones and their Increasing Number of ApplicationsJeffrey Funk
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze how drones are becoming economic feasible for an increasing number of applications as their costs fall. The costs of drones are falling as the costs of various ICs (controllers, GPS) and MEMS sensors rapidly fall, their performance rises (e.g., accuracy of GPS) and as the cost of carbon fibers fall at a somewhat slower pace than do ICs and MEMS. These falling costs are making drones economically feasible for a number of applications such as producing movies, TV reporting, surveillance, and delivery.
It is a presentation on the drone, UAV, fixed wing, application of drone, fix wing drone, surveillance using a drone, agriculture using a drone, mapping with a drone, research with a drone, military drone usage, types of UAV
The slides give a brief description of the technical characteristics, classification, level of autonomy, types of drones available, merits, demerits, future development, and applications.
In past couple years, drones have been receiving a lot of attention. This presentation provides background, history, and applications of drones from multiple sources.

Car Accident Injury Do I Have a Case....Knowyourright
Every year, thousands of Minnesotans are injured in car accidents. These injuries can be severe – even life-changing. Under Minnesota law, you can pursue compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.

•Currently, the DGCA has permitted food startups to conduct
trials for drones Beyond the Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS).
Unlike Visual Line of Sight (VLOS) flights, which are
operated within the pilot’s line of sight, BVLOS flights are
flown beyond the visual range. These are mainly performed
for monitoring large areas.
It enables service providers to conduct complex drone
operations and facilitate drones to fly without any human
interference.
•DGCA is also expected to issue a separate set of rules to
enable use of drones for e-commerce or delivering medical
supplies.

Way Forward
•Drones offer low-cost, safe and quick
aerial surveys for data collection and are
useful for industries such as power,
mining, realty, oil and gas exploration,
railways and highways. They are also
effective in relief and rescue work and in
policing.
•But drones can also be misused such
as Saudi-Aramco Drone Attack and
thus regulated usage of drones is
necessary in today’s world.

•The UAS Rules have been a long time coming given that the draft Drone Policy 2.0
was released in January 2019. The UAS Rules allow UA to operate which will be a
significant change from the existing RoCR (this was contemplated in draft Drone
Policy 2.0) and therefore, a step in the right direction. However, other
recommendations of the draft Drone Policy 2.0 such as beyond visual line of sight
(BVLOS) operations and carriage of payload are not envisaged in the UAS Rules.
•The Indian government too understands the potential of drones in India given that
Indian law enforcement agencies have deployed drones for enforcing social
distancing measures and disinfection purposes during the COVID-19 pandemic. In
fact, 13 companies in India which include online delivery companies such as Swiggy
and Zomato have recently received approval from the DGCA to test BVLOS
operations using drones. It is unclear whether such operations will be permitted under
the UAS Rules once they are finalised. It is reported that separate rules for e-
commerce operations or delivery of medical supplies by drones may take atleast a
year.
•Our preliminary view is that under the UAS Rules, there are multiple authorisations
which any person dealing in UAS will have to obtain, right from UAN to Certificate of
Manufacture to UIN and UAS Operator Permit (for operating the UAS). NASSCOM is
analysing the UAS Rules in detail.
