NEW DELHI: In the past 24 hours, three Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel have tested positive for the novel coronavirus infection, taking the Delhi count for the paramilitary force to 39.
\nOne of these three personnel was on duty at the Delhi airport, while the other two were deployed with Delhi Metro.
\nWith domestic flight operations scheduled to resume from Monday, CISF said it would mostly go for \u201ccontactless\u201d frisking of passengers and use glass partitions to check tickets to minimise the risk of the virus spread. All personnel coming in direct contact with flyers may also use PPE kits, an official said.
\nBefore entering the airport premises, a flyer will show the identity proof and the boarding ticket to a CISF staffer from a distance with a glass screen separating them. A camera will be attached to this screen, making the reading of the ticket easier.
\nInside, bar-code readers will be used to scan boarding passes and metal detectors will be used for contactless scanning of a passenger. \u201cA physical check will be carried out only if the machine detects anything suspicious,\u201d said a senior CISF officer at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
