The video shows that two youths were drinking alcohol carefree in an open field behind an engineering college. There was peace all around, and they had no idea that their every move was being monitored from the sky. Then suddenly a drone started hovering over them. As soon as the youths saw it, they dropped the glass from their hands and ran back. But was it so easy to escape from the sharp eyes of the drone? Based on the footage, the police identified them and took both of them into custody.

Strict police surveillance with drones

The Andhra Pradesh police is now resorting to drone technology to curb crime. This initiative, started to increase surveillance in public places, has given sleepless nights to lawbreakers. This incident in Krishna district proved that drones can not only scan large areas, but are also effective in catching illegal activities in inaccessible places. A police officer said, “Drones give us real-time footage. This makes immediate action possible, whether it is drinking alcohol or any major crime.”

The Krishna District Police shared the video of this incident on its official X handle and warned people. The post read, “Follow the rules and stay away from illegal activities. The drone is recording everything from the sky. Strict action will be taken against those who break the law.” This message was not only in a light-hearted manner, but it also contained a serious warning.

There was no end to the laughter on social media

After the video went viral, netizens shared it extensively. One user wrote, “These are confirmed fugitives. The speed was worth seeing as soon as they saw the drone.” At the same time, another quipped, “He was fond of drinking alcohol, now he will have fun in jail.” Some people also praised this technique of the police. One user commented, “This step of the police is amazing. Now the criminals will think that the sky is also spying on them.”

A confluence of technology and law

This initiative of the police is an example of the excellent coordination of technology and law. While earlier foot patrolling and CCTV were the main means of surveillance, now drones have changed the game. Crime expert Ramesh Thakur says, “The use of drones is helpful in keeping an eye on petty crimes to organized crime. It is not only effective, but also reduces the effort and risk of policemen.” He believes that this technology will be used on an even larger scale in the coming days.

The way forward
This incident not only made people laugh, but also showed how effective technology can be in preventing crime.

The debate continues on this.
