Drones being used to sanitize Noida’s sealed hotspots
By MYBRANDBOOK
The UP government has taken stringent steps to curb COVID-19 spread across the state. The state government has identified 15 districts as being hotspots for COVID-19, of which one was Noida. To sanitise the hotspots in Noida, the Noida Authority started conduction sanitization drives in the 16-17 places under its jurisdiction. Noida Authority CEO Ritu Maheshwari told that they were using drones to spray disinfectants in these areas to sanitise them.
In Noida, 22 hotspots were identified that needed to be sealed, including 34 localities, 12 clusters and 10 epicentres, according to a news agency. Entire sectors 5, 8, 27, 28, 41 and 44 and J Colony will be sealed as they have a large number of cases and allowing movement in these areas might lead to the spread of the virus.
Hyde Park in Sector 78, Lotus Boulevard in Sector 100, Supertech Cape Town in Sector 74, Greater Noida’s Alpha 1, Nirala Green Shire in Sector 2 of Greater Noida, Logix Blossom Country in Sector 137 of Noida, Patwari village, Wazidpur village and Paras Tierra have also been identified as hotspots. Significant townships like Gaur City-2 in Greater Noida West and Jaypee Wish Town in Sector 128 have also been listed under the hotspots. No movement of people will be allowed in these areas and their essential requirements will be delivered to them by the authorities.
Drones have the advantage of reaching places which would be difficult to sanitize manually. Not just that, if manual sanitization drives are undertaken, it will put manual workers at the risk of contracting COVID-19, and this danger can be avoided in case of drones, hence limiting the spread.
