To ensure the safety and security of the vast number of devotees attending the Maha Kumbh 2025, a state-of-the-art anti-drone system has been implemented. The system, activated on Friday, has already proven effective by successfully intercepting two unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) flying in restricted areas.

As per PTI, the Uttar Pradesh government has deployed a team of experts to manage the anti-drone technology. These specialists are stationed at a central monitoring location, where they continuously track all drones in the area. The system has the ability to disable any drone that is considered suspicious or operating without authorisation mid-flight.
