Mangalore International Airport Dedicates a New Barrack Accommodation to Airport Security Group

The Mangalore International Airport (MIA) has dedicated a new barrack accommodation to airport security group (ASG) personnel of Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) at Nandabettu in Kolambe village. The new accommodation was necessitated by an order of the Union Ministry of Home Affairs to increase the ASG personnel strength at the airport and house 98 ASG personnel.

The creation of 149 additional posts will help this CISF tasked with security of vital industrial units, including major airports to render duties effectively and professionally. The Ministry has also upgraded the post of chief airport security officer (CASO) to the level of a senior commandant. The CISF will facilitate seamless movement of passengers while not losing sight of its primary duty, that of security.
