Terror drones from Pakistan demand a comprehensive national security response

Firstpost  

The skies over India are becoming battlegrounds for a new kind of threat: terror drones. Over the past three weeks, Indian security forces stationed along India’s international border states, particularly Punjab, Rajasthan, and Jammu and Kashmir, have intercepted more than a dozen terror drones launched from Pakistan. With the threat of terror drones looming large, India needs to urgently evolve a comprehensive cross-border drone monitoring and interception capability to safeguard its national security. At this critical juncture, it is essential for the international community to recognise the severity and consequences of Pakistan’s aggression by use of “terror drones” against India. Way forward Given the current threat of terror drones being used by Pakistan from across the border, it is in India’s best interest to develop a national, comprehensive cross-border drone monitoring and interception capability to counter the increasing threat of these terror drones and safeguard India’s national security.
