The Mumbai Police have imposed a 30-day ban on the flying of drones, remote-controlled micro-light aircraft, para-gliders, para-motors, hand gliders and hot air balloons across the Brihanmumbai Police Commissionerate area, citing the possibility of their use in terrorist or anti-national attacks.

The order, issued under Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, will come into effect from 12.01 am on October 14 and remain in force until midnight on November 12, unless withdrawn earlier.
