New Delhi: Flyers will do well to arrive at the IGI Airport with some extra time in hand.
After terror attacks in Istanbul, Dhaka and Madinah, CISF and other agencies have further beefed up security at the Delhi airport. Sources said that there had been a significant increase in the deployment of security personnel and frisking of passengers and luggage scanning had been enhanced. Issuing of visitor's pass has been restricted for indefinite period.
Keeping a tight vigil, CISF is randomly asking passengers to take off their jackets and shoes. Officers said that the exercise might cause a little inconvenience to the passengers, resulting in long queues during peak hours, but it was necessary from the security point of view.
Following the Istanbul attack, the airport security was reviewed by various agencies, including the Delhi Police, intelligence agencies, the airport operator, CISF and the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS).
"In the wake of the recent terror incidents, some precautions have been taken and the vigil has been further tightened. Personnel of CISF and Delhi Police's anti-terror squad have been deployed inside and outside the terminals," said a senior security officer.
