Kunwar Vikram Singh- Chairman of CAPSI & APDI welcomed the dignitaries and participants at 9th Security Skills & leadership Summit. In his inaugural address, He said “I am pleased to report that the PSS is growing at the rate of 22% as reported by Ernst & Young and this sector is expected to become Rs. 800 billion industry in the year 2022 which is an amazing factor addressing our nation’s sustainable growth. Our capacity gainful employment for lakhs of rural youth has given us unique distinction of being largest employment providers of the country. You will also be happy to know that this sector is the single largest contributor of corporate tax to the national exchequer. He further added “There are few clauses in the PSARA which are quite painful which are causing a sense of insecurity to those who are creating safe and secure environment to the society at large. The licensing processes and approach of State Controlling Authorities have be made Sector friendly. Recently a meeting of all the State Controlling Authorities was

convened by the Additional Secretary MHA in which we highlighted our concerns. We hope these issues are addressed at its earliest and relief is granted by the concerned department. Our major issue of SERVICE TAX is yet to be resolve by the Finance Ministry which is almost throttling our industry. Your timely intervention will surely bring relief. This year the Security Sector Skill Development Council set up under the National Skill Policy and monitored by the National Skill Development Council, has trained more than 130000 youth under the STAR Scheme as per the parameters of National Occupational Standards. But unfortunately they are yet to be categorized as “SKILLED WORKERS “for their entitlement to appropriate wages. We should take up this matter with Ministry of Labour and Employment so that rightful wages are given to Trained and skilled security guards. We must make all efforts to make security as an attractive employment avenue for rural and urban poor. These initiatives of MHA, which is our Nodal Ministry, will have very positive impact on the growth of the PSS.

Our Chief Patron Maharaja Bhanu Prakash Singh Ji congratulated CAPSI & APDI for organizing 9th Security Skills & Leadership Summit 2014. In his Address he gave a term TRIMURTI to CAPSI, APDI & SSSDC and said “Each of these has to get its act moving and the moves have to be made now. While each of the three has to engineer its own success route they have to synergize their energies for the sectors’ gains. It is indeed a boon that these synergies and activities are under a unified command and operating as a cohesive force. I am positive that the Private Security Sector recognizes the opportunity and will go all out to support the Trimurti with abundant faith and resources at its command”

The Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005 and its progression across the various states throw up a gamut of challenges both for the regulators and the regulated. The transformation of the unorganized sector into an organized one brings the PSS to a trapeze

act. Each move has to be coordinated, balanced and fine tuned for meeting the objectives of the Act and the business, he added. He further added “The Ministry of Home recently going to hold all India meet of the Controlling Authorities for assimilation of feedback and data. I am sure that the MoH would deliberate on constituting a joint consultative platform with CAPSI from where the sector’s progress could be tracked and regulatory checks and balances formulated”

INTO ORGANIZED SECTOR

His Excellency Shri Shivraj Patil, Hon’ble Governor of Punjab was the Chief Guest of the Valedictory & Award function. In his Address he stressed the need for incorporating changes in the PSAR Act, 2005 based on experiences over the last nine years. He also congratulated the Lady Security

Guards who have been trained by SSSDC

under the projects Training the Tribal.

He mentioned that when we talk about the

security of the country, then it lies with

Defense Ministry and Paramilitary Forces.

Security officers work more than the Defense

Forces and paramilitary forces. Internal

security is being taken care by Police and

Paramilitary forces. Besides the Para military

forces are on the borders with Defense forces

too. We have noticed that our country is

progressing and more progress will usher in

coming years. We have achieved a lot as a

country but still there is lot to achieve. You all

will be surprised to know that we just have

14000 police stations in the country for

6,50,000 villages. He questioned the

audiences by asking ‘why the responsibility of

the security of the nation should be expected

only from the government? Why not from

PSS?

He appreciated CAPSI by saying “The ability to

train 70,00,000 people is highly

commendable. Employment opportunity is

what you are providing to people of this

country. I want CAPSI to work more on it”.

PSS is going to be a booming industry very

soon as the country is progressing fast. This

work of providing security is immensely big

responsibility. This should be followed by law.

In the end he concluded that with right

leadership and holistic approach PSS can

march towards enormous progress.

Addressing the gathering during 9th Security Skills & Leadership Summit 2014, Hon’ble MOS, Ministry of Home Affairs Shri H P Chaudhary said “The Private Security Sector or PSS has today rightfully attained its stature and is today considered to be an important contributor to India’s march towards its global leadership position. The PSS comprises those who provide security for people and property under contract arrangement for profit. The nationwide development and growth can be best served in terms of security when the private security sector is effectively regulated and fully accountable. The government’s role in effective regulation has first to be a structured programme directed at mobilizing maximum members of this unorganized sector into an organized sector. I understand that with the enactment of the Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005 this objective was initiated but is yet to reach fulfillment. The sector players have been slow in joining the mainstream and I am afraid that their waiting and watching from the sidelines may isolate them from the projected

momentum that the organized sector is set to gain. At the same time one cannot advocate over regulation for those within the ambit of the rules as a zealous approach may result in strangulation instead of regulation of the sector. It is therefore imperative that balance be the keyword and regulating authorities adopt a tempered approach towards directing a progressive and developmental policy to ensure growth and business continuity of this vital sector.

Mr. Jual Oram, Minister of Tribal Affairs applauded the role of PSS in nation building and contribution to the internal security of the country in his address during the 9th Security Skills & Leadership Summit 2014. He said “About 8.2% of total population of India

has been classified as ‘Scheduled Tribes’ according

to the 2001 census. The tribal wealth is

widespread across India with main concentrations

in four regions. The northeast has a strong

presence. A fair majority inhabits Central India

spread from Gujarat to Bengal. In MP,

Chhattisgarh and Odisha the tribal’s account for

20% of the population while in Jharkhand, W.

Bengal, AP, Gujarat and Rajasthan they range from

4 to 15 percent. The third region extends from

Kashmir to Sikkim and the fourth is sparsely across

the south of India.”

It is also a paradox that though majority tribes

inhabit most resource rich regions yet many of

them live in impoverishment and isolation from

the mainstream society. The government policies

for development of the tribal regions and its

inhabitants have been guided by the objectives to

eliminate exploitation, to speed up social and

economic progress, to advance education and

training facilities and to promote and improve the

sustainable capacities. Right from the inception of

the Integrated Rural Development Programme in

1978-79, efforts have been made for wage

employment expansion under various national

and state programmes.

Kunwar Vikram Singh, Chairman presented a momento to Mr. Jual Oram, Hon’ble Minister of Tribal Affairs.

BUILD POSITIVE PATHWAYS FOR TRIBAL YOUTH-JUAL ORAM

Shri Rajiv Pratap Rudy, Hon’ble Minister of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship & Parliamentry Affairs graced the occasion and complimented the role of organization in enhancing quality in training and certification of the work force. He said “The Private Security Sector (PSS) is one of the most important sectors of our economy. It not only generates employment for masses but also closely linked to National Security. Considering that the workforce of the PSS is larger than the sum total of entire security apparatus of the government i.e. the armed forces, central police organizations and state police, it can act as an effective force multiplier to security forces, particularly the police, if adequately trained and motivated.” He applauded the efforts of SSSDC in creating

the desired eco-system by formulating the

National Occupational Standards, Curriculum

&Courseware, training of 1400 Trainers & 400

Assessors, accrediting 250 Training Providers,

Five Assessment Bodies and creating various

Protocols, is indeed laudable. He praised

SSSDC for training almost one lac fifty

thousand Security Guards, which includes

almost 30,000 from tribal areas by adherence

to a systematic process evolved by Council.

He assured that the Government is in full picture of pressing demands of the industry for higher wages and categorization of its workforce as “Skilled Worker”, which are significant issues for quality and morale of security personnel.

SKILL MINISTRY TO SUPPORT SSSDC PROJECTS- RUDY

Shri V Vumlunmang,IAS, Joint Secretary (PM), MHA graced the occasion with his presence as Guest of Honour. The first issue that he appraised the gathering

about was the recent meeting of all Controlling

Authorities of States and Union Territories at

Delhi. Such meetings had not been held for

quite some time. The meeting, he felt, was

extremely useful and served the purpose of

getting everybody to appreciate the priorities

that need to be addressed as far as the PSS is

concerned.

Training, he opined, was a critical issue. He

acknowledged the positive reports he has

received of SSSDC’s role in the area.

Personally, it remains one of his key result

areas and an important focus for the industry.

Wages were his next issue. He considers

higher wages as not essentially a welfare issue

alone but one linked to professional standards.

Today, the PSS, because of its low wages is

definitely not the first option for young men

and women. The development of the NOS has

been a boon in the quest for better training in

the industry.

He is fully apprised of the problem of

verification of antecedents that is being faced

by the industry. However, a database is under

preparation which will have a provision of

access by concerned authorities of all states.

Once operational, this database would

definitely provide some advantage. The

requirement of Directors to be verified by

multiple-states is also one his concerns and

focus. Time bound verification is one of his

objectives. The database would not only ease

the problem for verification of Directors, but

also be of use in the antecedent’s check of

Security Guards. He was of the opinion that a

constructive partnership between the Police

and the PSS is a must. It would aid in law and

order maintenance and prevention of crime.

ENSURE PSARA COMPLIANCE FOR OUTSTANDING GROWTH

- V VUMLUNGMANG,JOINT SECRETARY (PM) MHA

Page 10 of 22

Mr. Atul Bhatnagar, COO- NSDC started his

talk by reminding the audience of the fact that,

“Private Security Sector finds a place in the

industry canvas as a full blown industry which

is growing steadily, day-after-day….. There

are more Security Guards than the number of

Policemen we have in the country.”

He further added “By the year 2020 the

industry is estimated to post a capital

investment of Rs 1500/- billion. Its current

manpower strength of 7 million as set to grow

to 11.8 million in the same period. The

industry is being acknowledged as a force

multiplier for the law enforcement agencies.

The rise in crime and growing insecurity of the

common citizen further spurs its growth”

Among the states where the demand for the

industry is likely to be greater in the days

ahead are Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil

Nadu and Kerala. The cities that will require

the services of this industry more include New

Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Pune and

Chandigarh. In fact States and cities pursuing

vigorous growth will need more and more

deployment of Security Guards. As it stands, it

is already the 2nd

largest employer in our

country.

The SSSDC has done a commendable job in

the past couple of years since its raising. It has

standardized the training of the industry in the

country. By evolving the National

Occupational Standards, the industry and the

principal employers are both aware of the

standards to be expected in the functional

discharge of duties of the rank and file of the

PSS.

SSSDC has also got involved in the various

schemes of the Central and State

Governments. The Training of Trainers

programme run by the SSSDC has

successfully provided a growing pool of

instructors to the industry. It has also brought

about standardization in the assessment

process. Third party assessment is now the

norm and a pool of trained trainers and

assessors have brought about greater

objectivity in training and assessment.

ATUL BHATNAGAR APPLAUDED THE INITIATIVES OF SSSDC IN

SETTING STANDARDS FOR PSS

Mr. R. K Sinha started his talk by recalling the

efforts that had gone into the enactment of the

PSARA 2005. He said, “Me and the old

players in the industry of those days and

senior leaders of the industry like Kunwar

Vikram Singh, Pawan Ahluwalia, Subhash

Wadhwan, Col J S Paul and Jasbir Wasu went

calling on the senior Parliamentarians weeks

before the bill was to be tabled.

In their initial endeavours they lost out,

however, over the years perseverance paid and

the Act was finally passed by both the houses

of the Parliament.

He acknowledged the necessity of reviewing

the Act and including additional provisions for

the industry to be more in tune with current

requirements and realities. He pledged all help

since he had been the first Chairman of the

Board of Governors of CAPSI..

He apprised the audience of his interaction

with the Home Minister on the issues of

import. The Home Minister has asked for

redrafting of the bill.

He assured the delegates attending the Summit

that he would personally pursue any

difficulties that they face with the

Government. He would also play a similar role

should there be any issues of compliances with

the Controlling Authorities. Mr Sinha praised

the CAPSI Chairman for having organized the

summit and expressed his satisfaction with the

large number of delegates being present for it.

Felicitation ceremony was conducted for Shri

R K Sinha on becoming Member of

Parliament.

Former Governor of Nagaland, Shri O P Sharma expressed his concern over the Tribal’s welfare in his address during the Summit. He spoke on the topic “Channelizing their Strength for National Development”. He said “Empower tribal’s with education & economic development & also encourage their natural Skills & benefit from their entrepreneur Skills and replicate their success. With the spirit of enterprise, hard work and innovative approach they have shown the way to rest of the country in several regions. He said “The tribals have the best moral fibre, the nation has to offer but they have been treated well by independent India. The push for development dispossessed an estimated number of 60 millions from their homes and deprived of their rights in forests despite protective legislation and constitutional guarantee. This led to several

violent movements. There is a large homeless Diaspora eking out a living in cities with a bleak future. There are six National level Commissions and several state level projects to look after the tribal welfare. There is large number of NGOs also active on that front. Unfortunately most of the work in government and private hands is bogus.

“THE TRIBALS HAVE THE BEST MORAL FIBRE”- O P SHARMA

Page 13 of 22

Mr. N C Padhi, IPS (Retd) Former Secretary

Security said that there are number of

problems which internal security is facing in

India and he would restrict himself to the

changes since the time when he spoke in the

same conclave last year.

The changes are varied. Firstly, India has

suddenly become a country unsafe for

women. We have more than seven million

Security Guards securing the nation. We need

to take a resolution to place our seven million

people at the disposal of the nation to make

the country safer for women.

India is the most attractive investment

destination in the world. Every country like

china, we have huge surplus foreign change

reserve. If they try to use it within their own

country, real estate prices will boom, prices

will shoot up and everything will become

costly.

There is thus going to be a massive inflow of

investments in our country. We have to skill

your populace to be able to run the industries

that will come up. These industries will also

require security and, hence, the Security

Guard needs to be trained for the industrial

boom that everyone anticipates.

The next issue is Jihad terrorism. Globally

there are two groups now competing with

each other. These are the Al-Qaeda and the

ISIS. ISIS is also recruiting from India to fight in

Syria &Iraq while Al-Qaeda has launched a

new branch that takes charge of its operations

in South Asia.

Our private security agencies all over India

should be keeping their highest alertness to

be the first responder if any such incident

happened anywhere in India.

INTERNAL SECURITY SITUATION –ROLE OF PSS

- N C PADHI

Page 14 of 22

Mr. C M Sharma, Former DGP felt PDARA was a

redundant endeavor if it does not empower the

Private Detective Industry simultaneous with

bringing in regulatory checks.

While discussing provisions included in the Act he

said, “Today a Detective Agency undertaking an

investigating task only reports its findings to its

clients, however, as per the act the agency would

have to report any unlawful activity noticed to the

Police also. Such an act may amount to breach of

trust as far as the agency’s client is concerned”

He further added “I run an agency and am often

asked to undertake background checks of

individuals for various embassies. There are many

numbers of cases where married individuals go

abroad and marry women there for citizenship.

Technically he has committed bigamy. He divorces

the woman he has married after legal

requirements are met for citizenship in that

country and come back and remarries his first

wife. If such cases are not reported by the Agency

during the course of their investigations to the

Police, actually the law has been flouted.

I am certain the Police cannot do everything. Such

things like verification for passports, veracity of

documents submitted are voluminous. In the

bargain a slipshod job is done. It leads to corrupt

practices. I was asked to pay Rs 2000/- for my

grandson’s passport related verification. It also

leads to needless delay also. But we are not ready

to give these duties to the PDAs. You can trust a

person who is wearing a pair of uniform but you

cannot trust one wearing civvies.

AGENCIES – C M SHARMA

Maj General D K Jamwal, CEO-SSSDC gave an

overview of the training process being followed

by SSSDC, which are highly methodical and

ensure standardization and quality of training.

He emphasized the importance of third party

assessment &certification of existing workforce

(more than 80% is not certified) through the RPL

(Recognition of Prior Learning) assessment

process; for which a user friendly protocol has

been formulated by SSSDC, based on existing

instructions issued by the Govt of India. This

would strengthen our case for categorizing

Security Guards as “Skilled Workers” and

consequently demanding higher wages.

In his address, he mentioned that “We are aware

of the Government’s objective to skill 500

million people by 2022. For this, various

programmes under the State/UT and Central

Government are being executed to promote

skilling under National Skill Policy, 2009.

Formation of Ministry of Skilling, formulation of

National Skills Qualification Framework

(NSQF) and creation of a Skilling trio: NSDA -

NSDC- Skill Councils are major steps in this

direction.”

Gen Jamwal further intimated that various

programmes like STAR, Ajeevika, Rural &

Urban Livelihood Missions, etc. have been

launched by the Govt. Special attention is being

paid towards skilling of tribal population.

Skilling programmes are also being included in

schools, colleges and universities under the

NSQF. Around two million people have already

been skilled under NSQF, for various trades and

sectors. In due course, the entire skilling

programme of the country will be encompassed

by the NSQF.

Skilling of the tribal population would be a

major contributor towards national security and

overall economy. It will help their integration

into the mainstream of the national populace.

With its well laid out processes and procedures,

SSSDC can be a major enabler for training,

particularly for the tribal population. SSSDC can

be an executor cum coordinator of concerned

organizations, who will operate in this zone.

In the end, Gen Jamwal reiterated the importance

and relevance of assessment and certification of

the entire workforce as per the NOS, within the

overall gamut of NSQF. This would be a win-

win situation for all stakeholders.

training and employment projects to bring

these tribal youth in the mainstream of the

country”

He also added “We would like to have a

continent of such trained tribal girls

participate in the Republic Day Parade and

show their resolve to secure the nation

within.”

Kunwar Vikram Singh motivated Security Lady

Guards and congratulated them for being

engaged in creating safe and secure

environment for the citizens of our nation. He

also distributed certificates of participation.
