DigiYatra expands and faces outage risk

The cluster is centered on DigiYatra as a biometric airport processing system in India.

The current signal is a rollout/expansion pattern: more airports are adopting facial-recognition-based check-in, security, and boarding workflows, with privacy safeguards described in deployment language. A second, smaller but important signal is operational fragility: a recent outage at Kolkata showed that centralized biometric verification can fail and force manual fallback processing.
