CISF deployment at Surat airport postponed

SURAT: The deployment of the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) at the Surat airport has been postponed once again, for want of additional arrangements for the security personnel.
Earlier, the Surat airport authorities had announced that the Airport Security Group of CISF was to take over the security from December 28.
The airport officials had also said that all requirements of the central para-military force had been fulfilled including food, accommodation and special requirements for arms and ammunitions.
Surat airport director Aman Saini said, “We were ready with all the arrangements and had informed the CISF about it. However, they have some more requirements, so we are now working on that too.”
About 226 CISF personnel including women were to take charge of Surat airport security on Tuesday.
