NSG Conducts Anti-Hijack Drill at Bengaluru Airport

Bengaluru's Kempegowda International Airport recently conducted a comprehensive security drill in collaboration with the National Security Guard (NSG) to bolster its emergency response and anti-hijack preparedness. The exercise aimed to simulate a hijack scenario and evaluate the effectiveness of response protocols and coordination among various security agencies.

Led by NSG commandos, the drill involved swift and coordinated actions to neutralise simulated threats and secure the airport premises. Such drills are crucial for testing the readiness of airport personnel, security forces, and emergency responders in handling crisis situations with precision and efficiency.

The exercise at Bengaluru Airport underscored the importance of continuous training and preparedness in safeguarding aviation facilities against potential security threats. It emphasised the airport's commitment to maintaining high standards of safety and security for passengers, airlines, and airport staff.

Participating agencies included local law enforcement, airport security teams, and NSG personnel specialised in counter-terrorism operations. The drill simulated real-world scenarios to assess response times, communication protocols, and tactical strategies aimed at minimising risks during emergencies.

Bengaluru Airport's proactive approach in conducting such security drills reflects its dedication to enhancing security measures and maintaining vigilance against evolving threats in the aviation sector. By collaborating with specialised units like NSG, the airport aims to ensure a robust security framework capable of swiftly responding to any potential security challenges.
