Yup. looks like the DRDO Netra

Beware citizens: Subhanjan has his electronic eye on you

@sanjayrai55:  Seems Mr. Saha has got his contract from Kolkata police this time!! 

People be careful! Do not forget to wear a Helmet if you are within 10 Km radius of any Puja pandal !! 

...and there goes our privacy out of the window...

the article mentioned
"In its latest guidelines on the UAV, the ministry said, "Air surveillance can be obtained by positioning various equipment - balloons, UAVs and helicopters fitted with gadgets like cameras and sensors - to cater to specialized requirements." The data collected would be fed to the command control centre (CCC) for necessary action"

can anyone put light on "latest guidelines on UAV by ministry"   

@meet2ami it's not Mr. Saha. It's Ideaforge DRDO Netra

latest guidelines on UAV by ministry -- ??  does the ministry even know what UAV stands for?? 

maybe they will take it for another political party  or another coalition like the NDA (National Democratic Alliance)   

@yashodhanp Yes I know its not Mr. Saha. I was just kidding with respect to sanjayrai55's comment.  

Any guesses as to who will be flying these? Flying these during the pujas seems to me, a recipe for disaster

it's dangerous to fly drones over crowds.. what if by some freak chance, it falls and injures someone? then who's going to be responsible? we've already seen drones dropping from the sky abroad...

Yes thats a big question! Who will control these because there's no gurantee that accedents wont happen. Even how efficient are those pilots who will control them??  Thats why i said people have to wear helmets while visiting puja pandals!!
