India’s First Drone Forensic Lab Opens in Uttar Pradesh

The State Institute of Forensic Science (UPSIFS) in Lucknow now has the nation’s first dedicated drone forensic laboratory, marking a significant step in Uttar Pradesh’s efforts to combat crimes involving drones. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath officially opened the facility, which is intended to provide law enforcement with a technological advantage in tracking and looking into drone activity.

Milind Raj, a drone technologist, created the lab, which has the capacity to conduct in-depth analysis of unmanned aerial vehicles. The facility enables investigators to perform a thorough forensic examination of drones, from pinpointing the precise launch location and flight path to assessing payload capacity and possible threats. This enables real-time tracking and evaluation of drones suspected of transporting explosives, drugs, or other illegal cargo.

In addition to conducting research, the lab serves as a center for capacity-building and training. In order to help Uttar Pradesh create a dedicated drone-response unit within its police force, police officers and forensic teams will receive training on how to operate drones safely. It is anticipated that such a unit will be involved in crime detection, disaster response, border and prison surveillance, and crowd monitoring.

Experts can now track the origins and goals of drone operations thanks to the UPSIFS facility’s sophisticated computing systems, simulation setups, and reverse-engineering tools. Investigating UAVs connected to illegal activity is further improved by customized forensic kits.

Uttar Pradesh is now the first Indian state to formally incorporate drone forensics into its policing system. Given the growing use of drones for espionage, illegal smuggling, and other anti-social activities, analysts see the action as a possible model for other states.

With the creation of this lab, India’s forensic infrastructure has grown significantly, putting the state police in a position to keep up with new developments in drone technology and its abuse.
