The passengers will be asked to respond to a few questions as part of the feedback survey and their suggestions and observations will be analysed and worked upon to revamp the services.

This month-long feedback survey will be carried out at Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Cochin and Guwahati airports.

Apart from four parameters - feeling of being safe and secure, waiting time at security inspection, thoroughness of security inspection and courtesy and attitude to help, the response of various passenger-centric initiative, such as removal of baggage tag stamping at the airports has also been included in the questionnaire, a senior CISF official said.
