Union Minister for Civil Aviation Shri Jyotiraditya Scindia recently launched Digi Yatra for three airports — New Delhi, Varanasi, and Bengaluru — to achieve contactless, seamless processing of passengers at airports based on Facial Recognition Technology (FRT). Meaning, passengers need not carry hard copy of their ID proofs and boarding passes.
The facility can be availed through one-time registration on Digi Yatra app. According to reports, the facility will extend to four other airports in Hyderabad, Kolkata, Pune, and Vijayawada by March 2023.
The service is presently available for domestic flight passengers only, accessible on Android and iOS.
