Overview

• The Taj Mahal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, will soon feature an anti-drone system to counter potential aerial threats.
• The system has a range of 7-8 kilometers and is most effective within a 200-meter radius of the monument's main dome.
• It will automatically jam drone signals, rendering them inoperable through a 'soft kill' mechanism.
• A dedicated response team is being trained to locate drone origins and secure areas where drones are intercepted.
• This security upgrade follows recent cross-border tensions, including drone strikes, highlighting the need for enhanced measures at sensitive sites.
