The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) is set to import vehicle scanning machines from the United States with an aim to prevent arms transportation in Jammu and Kashmir, reports said on Friday.
The Multi-Mode Passive Detection System (MMPDS) is an advanced version of the scanning system which is not based on X-Ray and it can monitor all vehicles entering in the union territory.
The MMPDS is a safe, effective and reliable automated scanning system that quickly detects, locates and identifies explosives, weapons, drugs, tobacco, alcohol, humans, other contraband, as well as unshielded to heavily shielded radiological and nuclear threats.
