In the early hours of Monday morning, a drone-like device was reportedly seen flying over Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s official home in the nation’s capital, according to the police.

According to the Delhi Police, information about flying a drone in the no-flying zone above the Prime Minister’s residence was received in the morning. At around 5 am, the police were informed about the drone sighting by officers of the Special Protection Group, an elite force that protects the prime minister.
