In the present internal security scenario many organisations are seeking security cover from disciplined and efficient agencies. The vast pool of experienced and able-bodied ex-servicemen can meet this requirement provided they are employed in an organised manner. To ensure a second career for the ex-servicemen, DGR began sponsoring security agencies since 1992. The scheme has grown due to reliability, efficiency, effectiveness, discipline and dedication of retired Armed Forces personnel employed. In the prevailing security scenario and the realisation for the need of effective security by major organisations (Government, Public & Private), the requirement has increased manifolds. These instructions will be effective from 01 Feb 2006. The instructions are to be read in conjunction with all related aspects as dealt in different sections/appendixes in holistic manner. |
