CISF to engage commuters to enhance security at Metro



A novel method to politely enforce discipline amongst commuters has been initiated in the Delhi Metro by the CISF as part of a plan to enhance the overall security arrangements at the rapid rail transport system.

Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) guards the Metro network which runs across the national capital and NCR regions of Ghaziabad, Noida, Gurgaon and Faridabad. Under a pilot-project, the CISF has deputed a select group of its personnel and officers who have started to fan across eight select Metro stations talking to commuters about following few norms mandated for the security of passengers like personal frisking and observance of rules on platforms.
