Siliguri, 14th January: Two advanced drones were spotted flying in the sky over the NJP area in the early morning violating security measures. The incident came to light when the drones were captured on camera by railway security personnel.
Following the discovery, the NJP police launched an investigation and detained five youths. The drones were found flying near the Fulbari Tea Park without prior authorization. The individuals, who were working under a railway contractor, were using drones for the construction work at the new NJP station.
Railway authorities contacted the NJP police, and after nearly two hours of investigation, the five were apprehended. The local administration had not granted permission for the drone flight, which caused concern among residents. The police are taking the matter seriously and have assured that all aspects of the incident will be thoroughly investigated.
