Indian post makes first ever drone delivery of national flag in Himachal

In India, for the first time, the National Flag, Tiranga was delivered vy drone. India Post delivered the National Flag, Tiranga, by drone from Mandi Head Post Office to Rehardhar Branch Post Office in Himachal Pradesh on the eve of Independence Day, August 14,2026. Union Minister for Communications Jyotiraditya M. Scindia virtually inaugurated the drone delivery and witnessed the live take-off from the Mandi Head Post Office. He also interacted with postal officials and the drone operator during the operation. The drone subsequently landed at Rehardhar Branch Post Office, where postal officials received the parcel carrying the Tiranga and formally handed it over to an Army veteran, adding a special significance to the Independence Day initiative. Scindia said the journey of the Tiranga through the skies of Himachal Pradesh symbolised the spirit of a new India that is determined to overcome geographical barriers and reach every citizen. He said this year’s Independence Day carries added significance as the country commemorates 150 years of Vande Mataram, bringing together national pride, the spirit of service and the aspiration of building a Viksit Bharat.

The Department of Posts is exploring drone-based mail transmission as an innovative solution for delivering postal and public services to areas where conventional transportation can be challenging. Under the initiative, drone-based mail transmission is planned across 150 identified routes in Himachal Pradesh and Assam. The programme aims to strengthen connectivity and improve the efficiency of mail delivery across difficult terrains.
