While the mock exercise is important, I hope they also focus on the passenger experience. Sometimes the heightened security checks cause such long queues and confusion. Can we have efficiency with security?

Thakkolam in TN getting a sports centre is great, but why only southern region? We need such facilities in the East and North-East as well to truly tap into India's sporting potential.
