Shamshabad: The Hyderabad International Airport commenced a three-month trial of body scanners for passengers on voluntary basis at the domestic departure terminal, a press release from GMR group, which operates the airport said on Thursday. This is In line with the directive of the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS).
As part of trial phase, one body scanner has been deployed at the express security check lane near departure Gate No 3. Upon successful completion of trials and subsequent regulatory approvals, body scanners would be installed across the terminal for security check. Body scanners operate on SAFE Radio Wave Security System, which is an image free scanning technique, and, hence, is completely harmless and poses no threat of privacy infringement.
The trial of body scanners at Hyderabad International Airport is voluntary and so far has received positive reviews from the passengers. Many airports in European countries and the United States of America are already using body scanners for security check. In India, airports at Pune, Mumbai and Bangalore are also known to have initiated trials of body scanner for passengers.
