Section 8 of the CISF Act, 1968 lists the minor punishments that can be awarded to an enrolled member for careless\/negligent duty or rendering himself unfit for duty. These punishments are listed in Section 8 itself: (a) fine not exceeding one month’s pay, (b) punishment drill, extra guard, fatigue or other duty, (c) deprivation of any special emolument, (d) withholding of increment or promotion, (e) reduction to a lower rank or grade or to a lower stage in the time scale of pay. Censure is a common minor punishment in service rules, including the CISF Rules (Rule 30), but it is not explicitly listed among the punishments enumerated in Section 8 of the CISF Act itself. Therefore, Censure may not be awarded *under Section 8* as per the explicit list in the Act, although it is a valid minor punishment awardable under the Rules framed under the Act.<\/section>\n
