A BSF official said the technology will help in dropping multiple grenades at a time at accurate location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a first, the Border Security Force (BSF) has developed a drone-based tear smoke launcher to control riots and other crowd control situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The BSF said in a statement on Friday that its tear smoke unit (TSU) in Tekanpur, Gwalior has developed a \u2018Drone Tear Smoke Launcher\u2019 for dropping munitions from unmanned aerial vehicles\/drones which will be a potential force multiplier to the security forces in law-and-order management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A BSF official said the technology will help in dropping multiple grenades at a time at accurate location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe chances of injuries from debris of the launched grenades will be minimal. The user can drop the grenades at a precise location, unlike the ones fired manually from a gun,\u201d said a BSF official.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 42nd Annual Governing Body Meeting of the unit was held on Friday under the Chairmanship of Pankaj Kumar Singh, Director General, BSF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr. Singh said that TSU is effectively producing and supplying anti-riot tear smoke munitions to all police forces in India for managing law-and-order situation. He said that indigenous production of non-lethal munitions by TSU has reduced the country\u2019s dependence on foreign munition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTimely and effective utilisation of the TSU munitions have saved valuable human lives and public assets worth crores,\u201d the BSF said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
