A devastating fire broke out at HEC Ranchi in 1964 and subsequently functioning of Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) were disrupted at Ranchi, Rourkela etc that triggered the creation of the CISF for better protection and security of the PSUs, the CISF said.
"On 02nd Dec’ 1968 the then Hon’ble President of India gave assent to the CISF Bill which was passed by the Parliament of India on 13th Aug’1968. An extract of the Gazette of India! Celebrating #CISFRaisingDay on 12 Mar’2023 (sic)," it added.
CISF started its journey in 1969 with modest strength of 3000 personnel to provide security to PSUs; engines for socio-economic transformation in India, the CISF tweeted.
