{'central industrial security force': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'administrative control': [0, 0, 3, 5], 'ministries': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'ministry': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'public enterprises': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'headquarters': [7, 0, 18, 27], 'integrated joint staff': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'heavy industries': [1, 1, 5, 6], 'pmo': [0, 0, 1, 3]}

The correct answer to the question is Option 3: Ministry of Home Affairs. The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) is a central armed police force in India that is responsible for providing security to various public sector undertakings, airports, and government buildings.

Let`s analyze the other options:

- Option 1: Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises does not have administrative control over the CISF. This ministry is responsible for the development and regulation of heavy industries and public sector enterprises.

- Option 2: Headquarters of the Integrated Joint Staff is not the correct answer. The Integrated Headquarters of the Ministry of Defence is responsible for the coordination of the three branches of the Indian Armed Forces.

- Option 4: PMO (Prime Minister`s Office) is also not the correct answer. The PMO is the office of the Prime Minister of India and is primarily responsible for assisting the Prime Minister in various administrative and decision-making tasks. It does not have administrative control over the CISF.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 3: Ministry of Home Affairs. The CISF is under the administrative control of this ministry, which is responsible for maintaining internal security within India.
