Delivering his address on the occasion of the 48th Raising Day of the force here, CISF Director General O P Singh said the force has already conducted a trial in this regard and it has been successful.
"We are trying to do away with the stamping of hand baggage tag of passengers soon at all airports that we secure. The force wants air travel to be more comfortable for the fliers," the chief of the 1.45-lakh personnel strong force said.
It is expected that the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) will implement it at the selected airports of Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Cochin, Hyderabad and Ahmedabad, from next month.
A committee, constituted post the high-level meeting, comprising senior officials from the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security, CISF and airport operators has already begun a tour of the airports to plug the "grey" areas at these sensitive facilities so that the possibility of any security breach can be ruled out once the procedure of stamping of tag is done away with.
The force was raised in 1969 and has recently got sanctions to recruit 35,000 more personnel to take its manpower from the existing about 1.45-lakh to 1.80-lakh in the next few years time.
