The CISF deputed to an Undertaking functions under its own command structure within the Ministry of Home Affairs. While there is close coordination with the Managing Director of the Undertaking regarding security requirements and deployment, the CISF unit is not under the general supervision, direction, and control of the MD in terms of operational command, administration, or discipline.

CISF units operate under their own chain of command. The Undertaking’s management provides input on security needs, but the actual command and control of the CISF personnel rest with the CISF authorities.

Options B, C, and D describe aspects of the necessary cooperation and reporting relationship between the CISF Unit Commander and the Undertaking’s management. The Unit Commander keeps the MD informed, the MD inspects posts, and the MD may raise issues through the CISF hierarchy, reflecting a collaborative relationship based on mutual responsibilities, not direct subordination of the CISF to the MD.
