Drone makers slam policy, say IT secy unreachable
Maharashtra's IT Minister Ashish Shelar has received urgent calls from leading drone manufacturers to update the Unmanned Systems Policy-2026. These manufacturers express concerns over the lack of industry transparency and insufficient input, suggesting that the current policy overlooks vital recommendations and fails to provide competitive benefits. The risks, they emphasize, may lead Maharashtra to forfeit a lucrative billion-dollar opportunity in both domestic and international drone markets.
