Airport passes with 'Distorted' map of India withdrawn | | | agencies NEW DELHI, Jan 6: All passes issued to employees and visitors of airports across the country have been withdrawn by the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) after it was found that a "distorted" map of India was printed on them, officials said. Map images of Jammu and Kashmir, the Northeastern region, Rajasthan and Gujarat were wrongly depicted in the passes issued at all Airports Authority of India operated airports and six Adani group-run airports-Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Lucknow, Thiruvanantha-puram, Guwahati and Mangaluru. After it was found that the images were "distorted", the BCAS has withdrawn the passes, an official privy to the development said. In a communication to the chairman of the Airports Authority of India (AAI), the BCAS said the embedded hologram roll being used is not according to the sample hologram approved by the BCAS. "Keeping in view the seriousness of the issue, it is hereby directed that all Aerodrome Entry Permits (AEPs) issued with holograms shall be withdrawn and further printing with these hologram roll shall be stopped with immediate effect," the letter said.
