DIAL gives land to Delhi Police for new police station at IGI Airport T1
The new facility will replace the current police station, which operates out of a temporary space at the airport. The permanent station is expected to improve accessibility, streamline operations, and enhance the overall safety and coordination mechanisms for travellers and airport stakeholders.
The formal handing-over ceremony took place in the presence of Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora.
The land, located adjacent to the ARC Officers' Mess and near the CISF naka on the road leading to the T-1D up-ramp, has been provided at a nominal licence fee of Re 1 per annum.
'The move marks the resolution of a long-pending proposal first initiated in 2008 and reflects a major milestone in strengthening law enforcement presence at one of the country's busiest domestic air terminals," a senior police officer said.
The Delhi Police commissioner while addressing the gathering said, the establishment of a permanent police station at Terminal-1 underscores our commitment to proactive policing and robust public safety infrastructure.
The upcoming facility will significantly bolster the police presence at IGI Terminal-1 and improve response time, crime prevention, and coordination with other security agencies operating at the airport, the police chief added. PTI SSJ APL SSJ APL SKY SKY

Last Updated: Bitcoin Price Prediction: Traders now eye $135,000 as the next possible target, with the recent breakout validated by rising ETF flows and macro tailwinds. Bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency, on Thursday touched its fresh all-time high, supported by strong institutional demand and growing expectations of a September interest rate cut. The price of Bitcoin stood at $124,196 on Thursday morning. However, the price has cooled down to trade at $120,640. According to Bitcoin traded at $124,196 at around 6 am on Thursday.

'Bitcoin surged past $124,000 for the first time, setting a new all-time high before easing. The rally was fuelled by strong institutional demand and growing expectations of a September interest rate cut, with CME FedWatch now showing a 93.7% probability. Softer-than-expected US CPI data at 2.7% y/y boosted optimism, though a core inflation uptick to 3.1% could keep the Fed cautious," said Himanshu Maradiya, founder and chairman of CIFDAQ. Ethereum also climbed near its 2021 peak, trading at $4,717. Institutional inflows remain a key driver BTC ETFs added over $3.6 billion in the past month, while corporate and sovereign treasuries now hold 3.64 million BTC, or 17% of supply. The markets may experience consolidation between $120K and $125K, but strong structural demand and limited supply will support further gains through the end of the year, he added. Bitcoin Price Prediction 2025 According to CoinSwitch Markets Desk, 'BTC has broken through the resistance zone between $122K-$123K, its previous October 2021 peak. Traders now eye $135,000 as the next possible target, with the recent breakout validated by rising ETF flows and macro tailwinds." Ethereum (ETH) is leading the mid-cap charge.
