Drones to inspect progress of railway projects

The Indian Railways has used drones for the first time for inspecting a mega rail project to assess the progress on the ground, and the flying machine would now be used to monitor other under-construction schemes. An unmanned aerial vehicle, also called drone, was used to inspect the ongoing work on the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) project and, as per the plan, all ongoing projects will be monitored through aerial survey.
