- The GRM Hyderabad International Airport (GHIAL) is set to launch digital processing of passengers as a proof of concept through the DigiYatra platform from August 18 for three months.
- The DigiYatra program of the government enables paperless travel and will avoid multiple identity checks at the airport enabling hassle-free travel.
- With this, the passengers in GHIAL will be processed automatically based on the facial recognition system at selected checkpoints. The first one will be at the departure domestic entry Gate 3 and the other at the Security Hold Area (SHA) in the passenger terminal building.
- The passengers need to download a mobile app developed by the technical team of DigiYatra to avail the benefits offered by the DigiYatra program. The beta version of the app was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on August 15. The app is available at Playstore and App Store.
- With this system, passengers don't need to show their tickets/boarding passes and their physical identity cards at checkpoints of the airport as the DigiYatra Biometric Boarding System is integrated with the identity document.
