The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) will take over the “comprehensive security” of the new Parliament building complex following the recent security breach on December 13, news agency PTI reported. The Union home ministry on Wednesday directed for a survey of the Parliament building complex so that a “regular deployment of the CISF security and fire wing on a comprehensive pattern” could be done, PTI reported.

CISF is a central armed police force that currently is responsible for the security of many central government ministry buildings, apart from installations in the nuclear and aerospace domain, civil airports and the Delhi Metro.

Experts drawn from the government building security unit of the CISF that guards central government ministries, and fire combat and response officers of the force along with officials from the current Parliament security team will undertake the survey beginning later this week,
