Singh was addressing the gathering at NISA located in Hakimpet, after reviewing the passing out parade of 38th batch of sub-inspectors.

The Union Minister stressed upon the growing role of CISF in the changing security scenario, particularly in key areas like disaster management, VIP security, government building security and aviation security.

"Aspirations and hopes are the essence of life, let us once again rededicate ourselves to cherish and follow the noble ideals which inspired our freedom struggle and endeavour to build a strong, vibrant and secure India," Singh told the sub-inspector cadets passing out of the academy.

Director General of CISF Rajiv complimented the trainee officers for their sincerity and dedication and hoped that the rigorous training imparted at the academy would make them stand in good stead in their professional career.
