Security tightened – entry to visitors at Prayagraj airport suspended

People coming to see-off or receive family members and friends at the Prayagraj airport will not be allowed to enter the airport building as issuing of visitor’s pass has been suspended. This follows a nationwide alert in the wake of the recent attack on the Jammu airbase.

“An alert has been issued at all airports across the country and we too have tightened security in and around the Prayagraj airport premises. As part of these efforts, issuing of visitor’s passes has been deferred till further notice,” said regional director (Prayagraj) of Airport Authority of India (AAI), Achal Prakash.

Information regarding the visitor’s pass being suspended has been put up on the airport gate too.
