Members of the Central Industrial Security Force, including supervisory officers, are appointed by the Central Government. Their conditions of service, including disciplinary proceedings, are governed by the Central Industrial Security Force Act, 1968, and the Rules framed thereunder (e.g., CISF Rules, 2001). These rules are essentially “Rules applicable to the officers of the Central Government of the corresponding class” as CISF is a Central Armed Police Force and its personnel are central government employees.

Disciplinary matters for CISF personnel are governed by the specific Act and Rules applicable to the Force, which fall under the broader category of rules for central government employees of their status.

While the Central Civil Services (Conduct) Rules provide a general code of conduct for central government employees, the specific procedures for disciplinary action against members of a force like CISF are detailed in their own Act and Rules. These force-specific rules are formulated by the Central Government and apply to the members of the force as central government employees of a specific class. The National Security Act and Indian Penal Code are not the primary governing laws for service conduct and disciplinary proceedings.
