Centre's Locust Warning Organization will press into service 25 drones and buy 60 more vehicle-mounted insecticide spraying machines to counter the attack of locust swarms in the near future.  There is every possibility that locust swarms will come towards India from African countries along with monsoon winds rising from the Arabian Sea.
