Comprehension
With the announcement of Drone Shakti in the Union Budget, the industry got a massive push after the liberalization of the Drone Rules in 2021. The Government stated that start-ups will be promoted to facilitate Drone Shakti, with 'drone as a service'.
The current Government has taken a serious paradigm shift on drone technology and Drone Shakti announcement of the current FY budget proves the government's clear vision and focus towards this emerging industry. Drone Shakti and Kisan Drones will definitely help get this technology to impact common people on the grassroots level at a massive scale," according to the founder and CEO of a prominent aerospace quoted in a business magazine. The country is set to witness the use of large, unmanned aircraft systems weighing more than 150 kilograms across the sectors. Kisan Drones are already being used for crop assessments, land records, spraying of insecticides, and are expected to boost a wave of technology in the Agri and farming sector. Drones are also being used in surveillance systems for Railway Security. In India, drones were also deployed to deliver COVID-19 vaccines.
Question: 1

COVID-19 vaccines were delivered by drones as ICMR-led pilot project to:

Updated On: Jul 14, 2026
  • Ladakh
  • Katra
  • Dantewada
  • Manipur
Show Solution

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

The fact being tested here is a specific location, so options can be assessed by checking which one is documented in connection with the ICMR drone-vaccine pilot.

Ladakh, Katra, and Dantewada are all remote or logistically challenging locations in India, but none of them is the place tied to this particular ICMR pilot project.

The ICMR's pilot for delivering COVID-19 vaccines by drone, aimed at overcoming difficult terrain and connectivity gaps, was carried out in Manipur.

So, the correct answer is Manipur.

Question: 2

Which of the following is the online platform hosted by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation for various activities related to the management of drone activities in India?

Updated On: Jul 14, 2026
  • e-Drone Shakti
  • Digital Sky platform
  • Aakash Shakti
  • Digital Drone platform
Show Solution

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Two of the options, "e-Drone Shakti" and "Digital Drone platform", are close-sounding distractors built from real terms (Drone Shakti policy, Digital Sky platform) but are not the actual name used by the DGCA.

"Aakash Shakti" does not correspond to any real, documented drone platform at all.

The genuine online system operated by the DGCA for drone registration, licensing, and permissions is called the Digital Sky platform.

Therefore, the correct answer is Digital Sky platform.

Question: 3

Which of the following refers to the phenomenon of restricting the movement of drones within a defined airspace?

Updated On: Jul 14, 2026
  • Geo-fencing
  • Drone-fencing
  • Sky-fencing
  • Air-fencing
Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

This question is testing a specific technical term used in drone regulation, so it helps to recall what each word actually refers to.

"Drone-fencing", "Sky-fencing", and "Air-fencing" are all invented-sounding terms that are not used in aviation or drone regulatory language.

The real, established term for using GPS-based virtual boundaries to restrict where a drone can fly is geo-fencing, and it is explicitly built into the Drone Rules framework in India.

Hence, the correct answer is Geo-fencing.

Question: 4

The Drone Rules, 2021 have been made in supersession of which of the following rules?

Updated On: Jul 14, 2026
  • The Unmanned Aircraft System Rules, 2020
  • The Aircraft Rules, 2020
  • The Unmanned Aircraft System Rules, 2021
  • The Manned Aircraft Rules, 1934
Show Solution

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

The question needs both the correct subject and the correct year to match, so each option should be checked on both counts.

"The Aircraft Rules, 2020" and "The Manned Aircraft Rules, 1934" fail on subject matter, they concern general or manned aviation, not the unmanned aircraft system rules relevant here.

"The Unmanned Aircraft System Rules, 2020" gets the subject right but the year wrong, the rules actually in force before the 2021 liberalisation were themselves from 2021.

The Drone Rules, 2021 explicitly superseded the Unmanned Aircraft System Rules, 2021, matching both subject and year correctly.

So, the correct answer is The Unmanned Aircraft System Rules, 2021.

Question: 5

Which autonomous body is responsible for national accreditation structure for drones?

Updated On: Jul 14, 2026
  • Drone Council of India
  • Unmanned Aircraft Council of India
  • Manned Aircraft Council of India
  • Quality Council of India
Show Solution

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Three of the four options, "Drone Council of India", "Unmanned Aircraft Council of India", and "Manned Aircraft Council of India", are invented names that do not correspond to any real autonomous body in India's regulatory landscape.

The "Manned Aircraft" option is also a subject-matter mismatch, since drones are by definition unmanned.

The Quality Council of India is the actual, existing autonomous organisation given responsibility for the national accreditation structure covering drone training and certification.

Therefore, the correct answer is Quality Council of India.
