Amit Shah on Sunday thanked Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) for being the 'Karamyogi' of the country and said that the forces warmly welcomed Indians returning from abroad through different evacuation operations.
"During the Coronavirus pandemic when Indians were coming back from abroad as part of the Vande Bharat mission, the CISF personnel took risks in taking care of the fellow Indians and even lost their lives. They've been taking care of the returning Indians from Ukraine under Operation Ganga too," said Shah in the address to the CISF raising Day celebration.
The Union Home Minister then said that India's journey towards a 2.5 trillion dollars economy was impossible without the force.
"In a journey from 2.5 trillion dollar economy to 5 trillion dollar economy, I request CISF DG Sheel Vardhan Singh to prepare a road map for the next 25 years that will be Amrit Kaal Period as more Industrial and manufacturing units will be set up in the country in all the sectors," Shah said during his address.
Referring to the increasing strength of women personnel in the CISF Shah requested the DG to make it to an 80:20 (men, women) ratio as compared to the existing 94:06 ratio in the organisation.
"I request CISF to train private security agencies to help in the security of all Industrial units in the country. I ask CISF to form a Hybrid model from the contribution of CISF and private security agencies. Later, CISF will be withdrawn and private security will provide security," he said.
Shah spoke about the future and how there is anti-drone being developed due to increasing drone threat. Shah said that the Border Security Force (BSF) and Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) are developing anti-drone technology, and the CISF will train itself to prevent Industrial units from any drone attacks.
