Additional Traffic Marshals have been posted at the departure forecourt to avoid vehicular congestion.

While airlines have been advised to deploy sufficient manpower at all check-in/baggage drop counters.
At the Delhi Airport, a new security zone – Zone 0 – has been created inside Terminal 3, according to Minister of State in the Ministry of Civil Aviation Gen. (Dr) V. K. Singh (Retd) in a reply to a question in Lok Sabha on 7 December.
