Q118 (CISF/2024) Polity & Governance › Constitutional & Statutory Bodies

With reference to the CISF Act, 1968, which of the following statements is/are not correct?
1. Section 8 deals with the superintendence and administration of the Force.
2. The superintendence of the Force shall vest in the Central Government.
3. The command and supervision of the Force shall vest in the Director General.
4. The administration of the Force shall vest in the Inspector General.
Select the correct answer using the code given below.

Explanation

Based on the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) Act, 1968 and the associated rules:

  • Statement 1 is incorrect: Section 8 of the CISF Act, 1968, specifically deals with the dismissal, removal, and reduction in rank of enrolled members of the Force. It does not deal with superintendence or administration.
  • Statement 2 is correct: The superintendence of the Force is vested in the Central Government, as is standard for Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs).
  • Statement 3 is correct: The command and supervision of the Force are vested in the Director-General (DG).
  • Statement 4 is incorrect: The administration of the Force is vested in the Director-General, who acts as the principal administrative officer. While Inspectors General (IGs) handle administration at the Sector level, the administration of the entire Force vests in the DG.

Since the question asks for statements that are not correct, statements 1 and 4 are the answer.
