Detailed Report
The Punjab government has extended the ban on flying drones outdoors across the province for 30 more days, citing public safety concerns. The move, announced by the Home Department, comes after the previous restriction, which started on February 25, expired on March 25.
The ban has been imposed under Section 144(6) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898, which allows the government to prevent activities that may pose a risk to public safety. While outdoor drone operations remain restricted, the rules do not apply to small drones used indoors, such as at weddings, events in halls, or marquees.
Event organizers are responsible for ensuring that drones are operated safely within these confined spaces. The restriction also exempts drones used by intelligence and law enforcement agencies, which continue their surveillance and security operations.
Officials have emphasized that these measures are temporary and will be reviewed based on the prevailing security situation.
