Dear Friends,

conference issue of The

Security Post and I would

like to advice all fellow

professionals to MUST

attend our 3rd National

Conference, as it is a Re-

Union of all friends and fellow professionals.

This will also give you an opportunity to share

your views with stalwarts of our twin industry

and also to gain knowledge from eminent

speakers; those have gained excellence in

their field of specialization. Only through such

inter-actions, you would be able to improve

your skills and enterprise management.

Through such National Conferences we have

been impressing upon Central and State

Governments to take care of our welfare and

create win-win situation so that we can

provide excellent services to our end-users

and also help the respective Governments in

their relentless fight against terrorism. Our

s incere offer to National Disaster

Management was very well received by the

organisation and now we are expecting close

working relationship with them. The State

Government of Orissa has worked out a MoU

with us to recruit and train guardsmen and

women from the state. This will certainly

improve our standards of services. I am

expecting five more States to follow the suite.

Her Excellency Smt. Prathiba Devisingh Patil,

interest in the functioning of Private Security &

Investigation Industry. She was very happy to

Dear Friends

We are passing through an auspicious and crucial month of the year. Auspicious because of the festivals following in this month and crucial because of various

activities by the unsocial elements which are attracting the focus and concentration of our Law Enforcing Agencies to maintain peace in the Country. Today, common citizen carries an element of fear while visiting the crowded markets for purchases associated with the festivals for his family. Even the religious places have become targets for the unsocial elements to create panic and horror in the minds of citizens.

I shall like to urge my security professionals to please offer maximum cooperation and support to the local Law Enforcement Agencies, responsible for maintaining law and order in their respective areas of operations. I am sure that all my security professional would have already taken adequate measures of supervising the deployment of their Security Forces at various locations, with the basic aim of providing the comfort level to their clients/end users.

I wish all of you safe and secure activities connected with the various festivals, falling in the month of October. Hope to meet most of you in person during the 3rd National Conference at Bengaluru.

Regards

Mahesh C. Sharma

Secy. General - CAPSI & APDI

Shri Thiru K. Venkatapathy Hon'ble

Minister of Law and Justice for State,

Government of India started the speech by

appreciating the work of CAPSI & APDI in

terms of the number of people employed by

the Industry and the tremendous service,

we are rendering to our Youth. He

encouraged to go full-fledged with Job

Melas and assured his total support. He

emphasized that it is not the State that

gives Security to all which was the thought

at one point of time, whereas the time has come that we all have to remember it is the

Private Security Industry that can play a larger role in serving the Society in larger needs. He

emphasized all the Youth who have studied up to High School and go around looking for Jobs

depend on the Government and in the failure of getting the Job, they move away from the

main stream, thus many of them becoming anti socials. It is clear that the Security Industry

can make submittal change for the Young people of the Country. He glorified the status of

the Security Guard by saying, that a man is able to present himself in a dignified manner with

a clean uniform, perfect hair cut, neatly shaven, looking trim and he is also able to give a

decent salary back to his home. The Security Industry should be credited, which was

applauded a lot by the audience.

Shri Thiru K. Venkatapathy criticized the manner in which the PSAR Act was passed and very

enthusiastically stated that he, in his right, as a Minister would do everything possible to

bring about the needed amendments in the Act including the co-ordination that is to be done

with the Central to increase the importance of Security Agencies. He also informed that he

would be a continuous source of support to the Industry in every way possible. He also

stated that he would spear head in organizing the Job Mela, all over Tamilnadu with the

support of CAPSI. He encouraged the Security Industry endeavors' to employ People with

the right backgrounds. He appreciated the size of industry and it would be the significant

force in the country. Copy of the 2nd National Conference proceedings (Hard Copy & CD)

were handed over to the Minister by our National Chairman Kunwar Vikram Singh.

Private Detective Agencies and Security Agencies by saying that they work for the Society and live for

the Society. He questioned why the Security and Private Detective Agencies are not recognized

uniformly throughout the Country? He emphasized that it is the duty of Senior Police Officers to

dispense such kind of misguiding from the minds of those lower level Police Officers and the Security

Agencies should be treated and recognized uniformly in all the States of the Country.

He also insisted that monthly coordination meeting of Police should also include Security Agency's representatives to discuss the details of the

crime taking place in Chennai and also to share the other information of City. He insisted that it is the duty of the Senior Officers to utilize the

services of Security guards and agencies in a proper way, as the goal of both Police Officers and Security Agencies is to regulate the law and order.

He appreciated the commitment of Security Agencies / Guards towards their duty. He insisted that Police Officers should come forward to make

use of the Security Agencies professionals as they are well trained. He also insisted that Security Agencies Professionals should offer their services

for the welfare of the Society, voluntarily. He expressed his willingness in training the Security Guards and he requested the chapter Chairman

Capt. Shibu Isaac to formerly invite him for training the Private Security Agencies Guards, so as to get the permission from the higher authorities.

Society. Thiru T. Radhakrishnan's speech was enthusiastic and also encouraging to all the Security Professionals, involved in Security Business.

concerns and over an inter-active session made notes of industry

concerns and dispelling industry apprehensions assured CAPSI

delegates that the committee assigned for licensing under the aegis of

the Director General Police, Haryana and consisting of Addl. DGP (Law

& Order) and others would proactively consider industry concerns on

regulate it and raise standards so that the Private Security Industry

(PSI) could thrive in Haryana and offer the desired scale of

performance to the citizens and Government of Haryana.
