GOVERNMENT CLARIFIES THAT THERE IS NO BREACH OF SECURITY AT AIRPORTS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
The attention of the Government is drawn to the incident being broadcast by Star News involving a case of corruption in getting a job as loader through a cargo complex employee. <\/p>\n
According to the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS), prima facie there appears to be no security breach as the cargo complex falls within the city side of the airport, an area controlled by the Delhi International Airport Ltd (DIAL). <\/p>\n
Security of IGI Airport International Cargo Complex is the responsibility of DIAL. For the Cargo Complex, DIAL issues pass for entry only into the cargo complex building, and these passes do not allow for entry into the operational airside area of the airport. <\/p>\n
There is total segregation of the Cargo Complex from the airside operational area of the airport by means a steel chain link 12 ft high along the boundary. There is only ONE exit and ONE entry gate in this boundary, which is guarded by CISF. Access from International Cargo complex to airside areas is effectively controlled by CISF and all persons entering the airside areas even with authorised documents are subjected to screening and frisking before each entry. <\/p>\n
In this case, the person who obtained employment and a DIAL pass as loader does not seem to have gone beyond the chain link into the operational and vulnerable area of the airport and was shown to be within the cargo complex till where his entry was restricted. <\/p>\n
The current incident is more a case of malpractice involved to get a job as a loader through a Cargo Complex employee, rather than a case of a security breach, and appropriate authorities will look into it.<\/p>\n
In case there has been any security breach, it will be investigated thoroughly by CISF and BCA S.<\/p>\n
The issue needs to be seen in the above perspective so that unnecessary alarm is not generated as has happened in the instant case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-219","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-india-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=219"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=219"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citynews.co.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
