Kerala’s second largest port in Kerala Beypore port is all set for a major security upgrade. The move follows the recent audit of port security done at the port to ensure compliance with established security protocols. Kochi is the largest port in the state.
A high level delegation headed by Vice Admiral Satish Sony, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Southern Naval Command, had isited the Beypore port on December 13.
Under the first phase of the project, the port premises will have a high end security surveillance system complete with a CCTV network which will be able to record and digitally store the footage of all the activities happening in the port.
Surveillance equipment worth Rs 2 crore will be installed at the port. The project will be implemented under a scheme that aims at boosting security infrastructure at all the minor ports across the country.
