What happened was that in Kautholi area of Prayagraj Meja, a drone suddenly appeared in the sky around 7 PM.
Villagers lost sleep, and rumors started spreading that someone was monitoring.
Police arrived, and upon investigation, 5 young men were taken into custody. They stated that they were shooting a web series called “Bulbula” — recording the film by attaching a camera to a drone without any permission.
A drone, camera, and other shooting equipment were recovered from the spot. The police stated that any kind of drone shooting without permission falls under the category of a crime.
It is also reported that for the past few nights, four drones were seen flying simultaneously in the Meja region, with red and green lights flashing. This created a situation of fear and mistrust among the villagers.
Meanwhile, a drone was found fallen on the ground in Delauha village of Meja. Police described it as a toy — but villagers claim this is just a pretense and it must be investigated thoroughly.
