The Central Industrial Security Forces (CISF) Unit of Paradip Port Trust (PPT) observed its 52nd Raising Day in its local complex on Wednesday.
Chief guest, PPT Deputy Chairman AK Bose took the salute from the marching contingents.
Addressing the gathering, he said the CISF is created for the better protection and security of industrial undertakings in the country. It is no longer a PSU-centric force. With the number of personnel having reached over 1,63,000, it has transformed into a multi-skill security agency of the country mandated to provide security to the major installations.
Commandant, CISF Unit, PPT Madhabananda Biswal told about the importance of security required by the critical industrial undertakings and sectors. Industrial places like nuclear installations, airports, power plants, heritage monuments, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation and many more require CISF in order to maintain easy workflow and secure surroundings for citizens.
