Which one of the following statements is correct?

According to Rule 28(3) of the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) Rules, 2001, a member of the Force shall not, by reason of his suspension, cease to be a member of the Force. The rule explicitly states that the member shall continue to be subject to the same responsibilities, discipline, and penalties to which he would have been subject if he were on duty. This makes Statement A correct and Statement B incorrect.

Regarding Statements C and D, Section 7 of the CISF Act, 1968, mandates that every person who ceases to be an enrolled member of the Force must forthwith surrender his certificate of appointment, as well as clothing, accoutrements, and other articles furnished to him for the execution of his duty. Failure to do so is a punishable offence under the Act.
