The unit will be led by a senior CISF officer and a team of certified Aviation Security (AVSEC) instructors, national auditors, and experienced personnel.
The IQCU will be responsible for standardizing security procedures, recommending technological advancements, conducting internal audits, and monitoring quality control across 68 airports nationwide. The unit will also cover airports under the Regional Connectivity Scheme (UDAAN), ensuring enhanced security measures across the country.
