Which one of the following statements is correct?
The term “Force Custody” means

Explanation

The term "Force Custody" is specifically defined under Section 2(1)(ga) of the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) Act, 1968 (as amended). It refers to the arrest or confinement of a member of the Force according to the rules prescribed under the Act.

  • It is a disciplinary procedure used when a member of the CISF is accused of an offence or misconduct under the Act, pending trial or as a punishment.
  • It does not refer to the detention of civilians or suspects (Option B), the storage of seized goods (Option A), or physical infrastructure (Option C).
  • Similar provisions for "Force Custody" exist in the statutes of other Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), such as the BSF and CRPF, to maintain internal discipline and administrative control.
