New Delhi: In a first-of-its-kind initiative in aviation security, the
US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) has entered into a cooperation
agreement with the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and Bureau of Civil
Aviation Security (BCAS) to establish an aviation security equipment
testing and evaluation programme. The agreement was part of the US-India
Strategic Dialogue during the recent visit by US Secretary of State
John Kerry.
Three American companies will work with AAI and BCAS to enhance Indian aviation officials’ capacity to effectively test, certify and procure advanced scanning technologies, the USTDA statement, issued late Friday night, said.
The programme will involve participation by the US Transportation Security Administration, which will host collaborative visits of Indian aviation security officials at its testing labs in the US.
