Plans for peak-hour capacity-based on passenger processing capacity at each major airport were outlined at the meeting while landing cards to be distributed on board and filled up prior to arrival, so as to minimise queues at immigration counters, he said in another tweet.
In another tweet, Scindia said that X-ray capacity for baggage will be assessed besides augmenting capacity of security manpower and hand baggage screening.
Longer-term technology-related upgrades will also be undertaken for security and baggage drop off processing at the airports, he said.
