Discussion on Sikh Passengers’ Security Check at Airports
In recent days, there has been a discussion among agencies related to aviation security regarding the security check of Sikh passengers. The main concern for security agencies is the presence of sharp objects within the international rules and religious beliefs of the Sikh community.
Two Systems for Security Check of Sikh Passengers
According to senior officials involved in aviation security, there are currently two systems in place for Sikh passengers carrying sharp objects at Indian airports. The first system is for domestic air travel by Sikh passengers, while the second system is for international travel. Sikh passengers can carry their sharp objects during domestic air travel, but it is prohibited during international travel.
Proposed Solutions for Sikh Passengers’ Security Check
One proposed solution is to create dedicated corridors for the security check of Sikh passengers carrying sharp objects at Delhi airport. Another solution is to restrict the use of sharp objects in the integrated pre-embarkation security check area for both international and domestic passengers. The implementation of dedicated corridors would eliminate the possibility of sharp objects reaching other passengers and the glass partition within the corridor would allow security checks for both Sikh passengers and airline crew/staff.
विमानन सुरक्षा से जुड़ी एजेंसियों के बीच इन दिनों सिख यात्रियों की सुरक्षा जांच पर चर्चा हो रही है। इंट्रीग्रेटेड प्री-इंबार्केशन सिक्योरिटी चेक (IPESC) सिस्टम के लागू होने के बाद सिख यात्रियों की सुरक्षा जांच कैसे होगी, इस पर सुरक्षा एजेंसियों की चिंता है। इसके समाधान के लिए सुरक्षा अधिकारियों ने कॉरिडोर बनाने की सुझाव दी है। इस तरीके से सिख यात्रियों के सुरक्षा जांच की सुविधा में सुधार हो सकता है। इसके अलावा फ्रिस्क्रिंग बूथ में तैनात सुरक्षा अधिकारियों को कृपाणधारी सिख यात्रियों को कृपाण प्रतिबंधित करने की इजाजत नहीं देनी चाहिए। इस विकल्प के तहत एक डेडिकेटेड कॉरिडोर बनाया जा सकता है ताकि सुरक्षा जांच के दौरान कोई भी गलती न हो।
