Select the correct answer using the code given below :
Explanation
According to the security regulations issued by the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) and the Airports Authority of India (AAI), certain sporting goods are strictly prohibited in hand (cabin) baggage because they can be used as blunt instruments or potential weapons. The official list of banned items for carriage in hand baggage at civil airports in India specifically includes:
- Cricket bats
- Pool cues
- Golf clubs
- Hockey sticks
- Baseball bats
- Bows and arrows
These items are considered security risks if accessible in the aircraft cabin. However, they are permitted to be carried in checked-in baggage. Since all three items listed in the question are included in the prohibited list for hand baggage, the correct answer is 1, 2, and 3.
