Your answer:  ·  Correct: A

Explanation

The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) Act, 1968, was amended in 1999 to include Section 14A, which specifically deals with providing technical consultancy services to the private sector. According to this section, the Director General of the CISF is empowered to direct members of the Force to provide security-related technical consultancy to an industrial establishment in the private sector. This action is initiated upon a formal request from the Managing Director or a person of similar status of that establishment. The service is provided on payment of a fee prescribed by the government. The Act does not restrict these services to establishments with government contracts, nor does it require "idle capacity" or allow services in "individual capacities." This provision allows the private sector to benefit from the CISF's specialized expertise in industrial security and disaster management.
