Drones as a Technology-Based Key Aid for the Development of Rural India

Atul Karanjkar, Vikramjit Kakati

Abstract


In rural development, the sole objective is to create a quality of life. In India, the majority of the population resides in rural areas. Several resource-limited countries suffered from underdeveloped infrastructures that prevented equal access to various development opportunities. Initially perceived as a toy, the drone has become one of the most essential, leading-edge, and radical inventions of the modern era. The paper reveals the necessity for drone use in the country's rural areas and presents a methodical approach to adopting drones. In addition, we discuss the newly developed uses for drones in rural areas, including their specific characteristics. This report summarises all of the essential elements of drone technology to provide a framework for utilising this technology for the development of rural areas in India.
