Salt Lake: The civil aviation ministry will be seeking a detailed report from the airport on two police officers entering the air traffic control (ATC) tower on Friday and staying put till chief minister Mamata Banerjee's flight from Bagdogra landed.
"We have to assess (what has happened) against protocol. If any action is required, we will take action," Jayant Sinha, the minister of state for civil aviation, told journalists on the sidelines of a programme at the Eastern Zonal Cultural Centre in Salt Lake.
Sinha said protocol was meant to be followed by everyone and that any breach was unacceptable. "We have to look at what is the protocol (in this case). It doesn't matter who it is (behind the breach)," he said.
The minister did not elaborate what "action" might be initiated and against whom.
The two officers from the Bidhannagar police commissionerate had entered the control room, a high-security zone, ostensibly to ensure a hassle-free landing for the chief minister's flight. They were there for more than an hour, sources said.
This was the second time in less than a month that the ATC tower had visitors from the police department. Four cops had entered the control room, three of them allegedly without permits, on February 23, when Mamata was flying back from Bagdogra.
