CISF’s emergency training proves vital during Surat airport medical crisis

The recent incident at Surat International Airport has drawn attention to the specialized emergency‑response training provided to CISF personnel stationed at the airport complex. When a staff member suffered a minor cardiac arrest, the trained officers executed CPR, first‑aid, and coordinated with medical teams seamlessly.

The training curriculum includes CPR certification, basic life support, and emergency response drills, ensuring that security staff can act as first responders. Their proficiency not only stabilized the victim but also prevented a potential fatality.

The successful outcome has been applauded on social media, with many praising the dual role of CISF officers as protectors and caregivers.
