Following the hijacking of Indian Airlines Flight 814 in 1999, the government decided to hand over security of airports from state police to the CISF. CISF was first inducted for airport security duties at Jaipur Airport in February 2000.

CISF took over security at Indian airports starting in 2000 after the IC-814 hijacking incident. Jaipur was the first airport where CISF was deployed for this role.

After the successful deployment at Jaipur, CISF gradually took over security at other major airports across India, including Delhi, Mumbai, and Amritsar, in subsequent phases.
