📰 Context & Evidence

In recent years, drones have been increasingly used for disaster relief efforts in India, but the Indian government has been slow to establish clear regulations on their use. Some argue that private companies can play a vital role in disaster response efforts, while others are concerned about privacy and security issues.

💡 Author's Reasoning — "Why am I asking this?"

Citizens should consider whether allowing private companies to use drones for disaster relief is a pragmatic approach to improving response times and reducing losses or can lead to safety and security risks.
