Patna: The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF ) deployed at Lok Nayak Jayprakash Narayan International Airport here might get a dedicated bomb detection and disposal squad (BDDS ) to deal with any threat. At present, the CISF has a bomb detection squad of four trained dogs for the airport.
This information was given by Patna airport's CISF commandant Dharmaveer Yadav on the occasion of a full-scale mock drill for bomb detection and disposal on Wednesday.
Stating that the Union government is planning to arm the airport with a dedicated BDDS, he said, "This would decrease the dependency of CISF on the local administration to a great extent. Hypersensitive and some international airports in the country have already such dedicated teams. We expect that the BDDS will be deployed sometime next year."
