An order to the effect was issued by the deputy commissioner Nipun Jindal under Section 144 of Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC). The PM will attend the first conference of chief secretaries in Dharamshala on June 16 and 17 and will also hold a road show.

Jindal said paragliding, drone flying, hot air ballooning and other airborne activities, which may obstruct safe air passage of Prime Minister and may jeopardise the Prime Minister’s overall security will remain banned for three days.

However, the PM’s security team may use drones, subject to approval from the competent authority.
