Drone flying is prohibited in these areas.
As per the order issued by the commissioner, private drone owners and operators in the city should immediately hand over their drones to the police stations under whose jurisdiction they live or do business.
Whenever they want to use a drone (for shooting videos or taking pictures, etc.) they would need to take permission from police, use the drone under police supervision by paying a fee and return it to the police station after use, the order said.
The order will not be applicable to drones owned by government, semi-government and defence establishments.
But these establishments will have to inform the concerned police station in advance about flying a drone.
The order will be effective till October 15, the official release said.&nbsp;
