NEW DELHI: Five more airports have done away with the practise of stamping and tagging passengers’ hand baggages, a senior CISF official said today.
With this, a total of 42 airports in the country out of the total 60 under the CISF security cover are now tag-free.
The airports at Khajuraho (Madhya Pradesh), Raipur (Chhattisgarh), Jorhat (Assam), Dimapur (Nagaland) and Shillong (Meghalaya) have recently been included under the hand baggage tags-free security regime that was initiated by the CISF last year, the official said.
The new travel regime for air passengers was launched in April last year by the federal civil airports guarding force in consultation with the Civil Aviation Ministry and the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS). (AGENCIES)
