  The CISF also asked the operators to work with their staff in bringing about a sound security information sharing network in order to ensure anti-sabotage measures at these facilities during regular operations and also emergencies.
  The operators, the CISF said, asked the force to enhance its dog squads at various airports so that the "response time and threat clearance for a flight under check is reduced."
  The CISF DG also highlighted an important issue about the "bunching of flights" at one time at occasions when there is inclement weather and airports get heavy flow of fliers at one time.
  "The DG requested the airport operators to coordinate with CISF in a pro-active manner by providing for speedy clearance of passengers," the force said.
  The meeting was initiated by the CISF as "recent terror attacks globally at various airports demands active participation of various stakeholders for safe and secure environment and need was felt to enhance the participation of different agencies."
  CISF which has 1.47-lakh personnel secures 59 civil airports in the country at present and the government has already planned to gradually entrust the security of the remaining of these facilities to the paramilitary force. PTI NES RG
