Q136 (CISF/2019) Polity & Governance › Governance, Policies & Social Justice

Which of the following is not correct in relation to an order of suspension of an enrolled member of the Central Industrial Security Force?

An enrolled member of the Force is deemed to have been placed under suspension by an order of the appointing authority with effect from the date of detention if he/she is detained in custody, whether on a criminal charge or otherwise, for a period exceeding 48 hours.

An order of suspension made or deemed to have been made continues to remain in force until it is modified or revoked by the authority competent to do so.

An order of suspension made or deemed to have been made can be modified or revoked at any time by any authority to which the authority who had issued the order of suspension is subordinate.

An enrolled member cannot be kept under suspension for more than 180 days.

Explanation

The statement in option D is incorrect. According to the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) Rules, 2001 (specifically Rule 33), there is no absolute maximum limit of 180 days for the total duration of a suspension. While an order of suspension must be reviewed by the competent authority before the expiry of 90 days, it can be extended for further periods not exceeding 180 days at a time. Consequently, the cumulative period of suspension can exceed 180 days.

Options A, B, and C are correct as per Rule 33. A member is deemed suspended if detained for more than 48 hours (Rule 33(2)). Furthermore, a suspension order remains valid until explicitly modified or revoked by the competent authority or a superior authority (Rule 33(5)).
