The Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) has asked airports and airlines to use better technology and assign more manpower resources to prevent passengers from tailgating through automatic gates at various check-points. This is needed to ensure the smooth implementation of Digi Yatra, a system for paperless travel.
“Strict instructions have been given against tailgating wherever there are e-gates,” a senior official of the Ministry of Home Affairs told The Hindu on the condition of anonymity.
