Introduction
On July 18, 2015, India claimed that the alleged downing of drone
in the Pakistan territory was a hoax. On this development, India has said that
the drone captured by the Pakistani Rangers was not of Indian make. From the picture
provided by the Inter Services Intelligence of Pakistan Army, it seems to be of
Chinese make, which is available over the counter in many reputed retailer
shops across the world. In this connection, the Pakistan had summoned the
Indian envoy in Islamabad to register its protest officially on the air space
violations.
False Accusation by Pakistan
On July 13, 2015, Pakistan made a sensational claim that an
Indian drone was shot down on the Pakistani side of the Line of Control (LOC)
in Bhimber region of Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK). From the picture provided
by the Pakistani side, it is clear that the drone has a high performance camera
for aerial photography on board. In a tit for tat reply, the Indian side has
claimed that the drone shown in the picture looks like the Chinese-made DJI
Phantom3. This reply was given by Indian Foreign Secretary S. Jaishanker. He
further claimed that the Chinese model does not have any sophisticated tools
for aerial surveillance. It is known world over that Indian military uses
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) for high altitude reconnaissance such as indigenously
made Nethra drones. These drones are made by Defence Research and Development
Organization labs in India.
