Delhi Police Strengthens Security At Indira Gandhi International Airport!

Passengers arriving at the IGI airport here will be able to avail services of the Delhi Police, such as lodging e-FIRs, through an interactive kiosk at the Terminal-3.

The kiosk was launched on Tuesday by Delhi Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal and Police Commissioner Amulya Patnaik.

Services of the hi-tech police facilitation kiosk will be available round-the-clock and dedicated police facilitation officers will man it.

The facility will soon be extended to Terminal 1 & Terminal 2 of the Delhi Airport as well.

Mr Baijal also launched the ‘Prahari Scheme’ of the Delhi Police for its IGI airport Unit. The scheme serves as a force multiplier and a community-policing system by ensuring active participation of private security guards and chowkidars in strengthening police intelligence network.

The IGI Airport Unit has en-rolled 600 Praharies from 11 hotels and three commercial centres of aerocity and other establishments at the airport complex.

The Praharis trained by IGI Airport police have been issued identity cards supporting Delhi Police personnel in checking and frisking, self defence, keeping watch on doubtful elements, information gathering among other activities.

Indira Gandhi International Airport is the busiest airport in India and the 7^Th busiest airport in the world. This decision taken by Delhi International Airport Limited will surely help strengthen the security at IGIA and make sure that travellers can fly safely.
