Q96 (CISF/2017) Polity & Governance › Governance, Policies & Social Justice

Which one of the following statements is correct?

Explanation

Option B is correct. According to Section 8(ii)(b) of the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) Act, 1968, supervisory officers are empowered to award minor punishments, including drill, extra guard, fatigue, or other duties, to any enrolled member of the Force for negligence or unfitness.

  • Option A is incorrect: Section 8 of the CISF Act explicitly states that disciplinary powers are "Subject to the provisions of article 311 of the Constitution", meaning they are not exempt from its safeguards.
  • Option C is incorrect: Rule 54 of the CISF Rules, 2001, specifically provides for the right to file a revision petition against an order passed in appeal.
  • Option D is incorrect: As the CISF is an "Armed Force of the Union" (declared so in 1983), its members are excluded from the jurisdiction of the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) under Section 2(a) of the Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985.
