Dibrugarh: The domestic airport at Mohanbari, located 15 km east from here, has been put tight security following inputs from intelligence agencies about possible terror strikes before or on Republic Day. According to reports, Ulfa hardliners might try to launch strikes at vital installations, including airports.
Airport controller SK Mallick on Monday said security has been beefed up at the airport ahead of Republic Day. "We've temporarily suspended entry of visitors to the terminal building. Except passengers and authorized persons, no one is allowed inside. We're keeping a sharp eye on any suspicious movement with the aid of CCTV cameras," said Mallick.
With multiple layers of security in place, the airport, now, virtually resembles a fortress.
