India: Satellite technology to mark structures

As the controversy over the demolition of illegal structures in Delhi continues, the Union science and technology ministry has come up with a hi-tech solution — satellite imagery — to ensure that unauthorised constructions do not take place in future.

It is expected to be fully in place in six months. This process may involve the country’s own satellite in after the launch of Cartosat.
