CISF Deploys at Noida International Airport: A New Era of Security Takes Flight at Jewar

A significant milestone has been achieved for the upcoming Noida International Airport (NIA) in Jewar, Uttar Pradesh, as the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) officially took command of its security operations. This crucial development on Friday marks a pivotal step in safeguarding what is set to become one of India's most modern aviation hubs.

The deployment commenced with a ceremonial 'pran pratishtha' (consecration) ceremony, a symbolic gesture initiating the force's protective role.

Under the leadership of Deputy Commandant Surendra Kumar, the initial contingent of CISF personnel has now assumed full responsibility for the airport's security. This includes comprehensive access control, perimeter vigilance, and ensuring the safety of all airport assets and future passengers.

The CISF's presence at Jewar is part of a broader strategy to secure critical infrastructure across India.

With its specialized training in airport security, the force is well-equipped to manage the unique challenges posed by a large international airport. The deployment ensures that the Noida International Airport will meet global security standards from its very inception, providing a secure environment for air travel.

Scheduled to become operational by the end of 2024, the Noida International Airport is a flagship project poised to significantly boost connectivity and economic growth in the National Capital Region and Uttar Pradesh.

Its strategic location and modern facilities are expected to alleviate pressure on Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport and emerge as a major international gateway.

The meticulous planning and timely deployment of CISF underscore the commitment to ensuring the airport's readiness. As construction progresses rapidly, the early integration of a robust security apparatus like the CISF is vital, laying a strong foundation for safe and efficient operations once the airport opens its doors to the world.
