Kandla Port to Implement Anti-Drone System for Security
Kandla Port in India is getting a special shield to protect it from drones.
This shield is an anti-drone system that can spot and stop drones from a distance.
The port is important for trade and has tanks with dangerous chemicals.
This system is being added to protect the port after concerns about security.
The project costs about $6.6 million and covers a large area of the port.
Kandla Port will be the first Indian port to install an anti-drone system.
The system will detect and neutralize enemy drones using signal-blocking technology.
The port is near the Pakistan border and is a key trade hub for India.
The project is estimated to cost $6.6 million and covers 200 acres.
The system's implementation follows increased security concerns after a recent terror attack.
