Bharat’s leading drone tech and analysis platform IG Drones received the IISSM Annual Excellence Award for the Best Disaster Response or Search and Rescue Company at the IISSM Annual Global Conclave.
The event took place in the presence of Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari at Taj Vivanta Surajkund in Faridabad.
This achievement recognises IG Drones’ extraordinary contribution to disaster management, particularly spotlighting its pivotal role in the aftermath of the Sikkim floods – a rare act of humanitarian utilization of drones for disaster response and relief.
Elated after receiving the honour, IG Drones Founder and CEO Bodhisattwa Sanghapriya expressed, “It is a testament to our unwavering commitment to innovation in disaster management.”
The recognition will “serves as a motivating force, propelling us to continue pushing the boundaries of what our drone technology can achieve”, he added.
In October this year, Sikkim reeled under flood caused by the incessant monsoon rains, which harshly ravaged the State’s infrastructure and interrupted communication networks.
In these hours of hardship, IG Drones performed an outstanding job in restoring the fiber optic line of telecommunication and mobile.
It is notable that in Bharat, for the first time authorities have used drones with such precision and perfection to restore network stability and provided detailed information in record time for further strategizing effective plans for restoration in disaster-hit State.
