Ministry of Civil Aviation to deploy PSA personnel at airports in place of CISF for non-core duty posts
Ministry of Civil Aviation has said that a total of one thousand 924 Private Security Agency (PSA) personnel will be deployed at 60 airports in place of Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) posted at non-core duty posts.
The decision will reduce the security expenditure and these CISF personnel can be deployed at other airports which will further strengthen the security set-up.
This will further help in the operationalisation of new Domestic and International Airports. Airports Authority of India (AAI) has appointed 581 security personnel from Directorate General Resettlement (DGR) and sponsored Security Agencies for Non-Core posts at 45 Airports. These Security personnel will be deployed after completion of the Aviation Security training program at selected airports.
At Kolkata Airport, already 74 DGR security personnel have been deployed from the 9th of this month after attending the training program. The Ministry said that the deployment process of the remaining security personnel is under process.
