Legal and Ethical Challenges on Drone Technology: Learnings From Indian Skies
Abstract
Drone technology is a mixed blessing in the modern tech era. While it offers advantages across various societal sectors, the downsides of unmonitored usage must not be ignored. This paper explores the challenges and opportunities of drone technology and evaluates its use in Indian skies, balancing concerns related to public safety, privacy, criminal justice, and surveillance. The study fills a gap by combining technological and legal perspectives. It critically examines how drones have enhanced existing practices in remote sensing, surveillance, crime scene documentation, search and rescue operations, aerial photography, and agriculture. At the same time, it addresses issues such as threats to individual privacy, unauthorized usage, and the risk of hacking and security breaches. The findings highlight that drones bring significant benefits but also pose societal risks, emphasizing the need for stringent regulations on drone operations in Indian airspace. This research relies on qualitative analysis of secondary data.
