What's the future of drones in India?

Across the world, drones are already being used to carry products, perform security surveillance or conduct warfare. It's becoming more common to hear the soft buzz of a drone flying overhead. India, which has so far trailed in adopting the technology, is now eager to ease norms and encourage the use of drones.

In this edition of WorklifeIndia, we discuss how new policy rules could impact the drone industry's future.
