The correct answer is D) 1, 2 and 3.

– Airport security regulations in India, as mandated by the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS), restrict the carriage of certain items in hand baggage that could potentially be used as weapons, including blunt objects or items that can be used for striking.
– Cricket bats, pool cues, and golf clubs are all items that fall under this category due to their size, weight, and potential to cause harm if used as blunt instruments.
– Therefore, all three items listed – cricket bats, pool cues, and golf clubs – are generally banned from being carried in personal/hand baggage on flights operating from civil airports in India. These items must be carried in checked baggage, properly packed.

The list of prohibited articles in hand baggage includes various items deemed a threat to aviation security, such as firearms, knives, sharp objects, explosives, flammable substances, and also certain sporting goods like bats, clubs, cues, and sticks. Passengers are advised to check the specific list provided by BCAS or their airline before travel.
