The Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) has placed all Indian airports on maximum alert following intelligence inputs warning of potential threats from terrorists or "antisocial elements" between September 22 and October 2, 2025.
The civil aviation ministry's security wing issued the advisory on August 4, directing immediate enhanced surveillance measures across all aviation installations including airports, airstrips, helipads, flying schools and training institutes.
"Recent inputs from the central security agency indicate a potential threat from antisocial elements or terrorist groups," the BCAS advisory stated, calling for heightened security to "avoid any untoward incident."
