Welfare & Funds Manual 2017


CISF today is the premier security organisation of the country playing
a pivotal role in securing critical infrastructure and vital economic
assets of the country. With gigantic responsibility and expectations for
excellence altogether the force has now emerged as a multifaceted,
multi skilled and multi dimensional security organisation, with a high
level of professionalism.

Welfare is a prominent part of Human resource development


strategy to address the welfare needs of the personnel to maximize
their performance to become more productive and proactive. With
this aim, the Welfare Directorate had come up for the first time the
Funds Manual in the year 2003. Subsequently several amendments/
modifications have been effected in existing rules and regulations O.P. SINGH, IPS
from time to time. Hence the need was felt to review all changes in Director General
rules and regulations governing Non government funds and benefits
to be accrued to the personnel.

A holistic view was undertaken for welfare of Force personnel and


their families for which we launched many welfare schemes such as
Welfare Fund, Risk–cum-Saving Fund, Regimental Fund and Canteen
Fund etc.

Welfare Fund established in Units/Establishments provide timely help


to the Force Personnel in extending outright grants, loans for various
purposes at low interest rates. Risk–cum-Saving Fund Scheme
provides substantial amount to the NOKs/Parents of personnel who
die while in service. Regimental and Canteen Funds cater to the day-
to day needs of the personnel and their families.

I hope and trust that this revised Manual will provide proper guidance
to all concerned for effective application of relevant rules and
regulations. This supersedes the Fund Manual issued prior to this
publication.

RISK-CUM-SAVING FUND SCHEME

Welfare & Funds Manual 2017


1. THE BACKGROUND

The CISF Central Welfare Risk Premia Fund Scheme introduced w.e.f. 01.06.1986 and revised
wef. 01.09.1989 was meant for providing financial assistance to the families of personnel who
die while in service and to those who are medically boarded out of service on account of
invalidation. There was also a provision for refund of the amount of subscriptions with the
prescribed percentage of bonus to the personnel retiring from service or leaving the Force on
some other grounds. In order to provide relief to the personnel leaving Force on retirement,
the Risk Premia Fund Scheme was modified to Risk Premia cum Medical Assistance cum
saving scheme 1997 (RMS 1997) which provided monthly pension for life after payment of
subscription over 20 years. As the experience of around five years showed that the scheme
1997 (RMS 1997) was not viable, a decision to revise the said scheme i.e. “CISF Risk-premia-
cum-Medical Assistance-cum-saving scheme 1997” was examined by the Governing Body of
Welfare Funds held on 24.04.2002 and the core committee of CWF has approved the Risk
Premia-cum Saving Scheme 2002 wef. 01.08.2002.
The annual meeting of the Governing Body of Welfare Funds was held on 24.04.2002. The
Governing body examined the sustainability of the scheme “CISF Risk-premia-cum-Medical
Assistance-cum-saving scheme 1997”. With this purpose, the Governing Body also examined
the inflow and outflow of the RMS Fund in depth, and found that the outflow is much higher
than the inflow. Also, the scheme will not be able to sustain this trend and will collapse, if
allowed to run in its present form. In sequel the core committee of CWF approved the Risk
Premia-Cum-saving fund scheme-2002 w.e.f. 01.08.2002.
The rules have therefore been amended as under:-

as (CISF RS Fund) for providing financial assistance to the families of CISF Personnel who
die while in service and to those who are invalidated out of service or retire from service
on attaining the age of superannuation or leaving the Force otherwise. The benefits under
this scheme may be termed as “LUMPSUM PAYMENT” to the members or their spouse
or their nominee.
(B) This scheme came into force with effect from 01.08.2002 and the existing CISF Risk-
premia-cum-Medical Assistance-cum-saving scheme 1997 was merged with this scheme.
All assets and liabilities of the existing CISF Risk-premia-cum-Medical Assistance-cum-
saving scheme 1997 was transferred to the revised scheme with effect from the date of
its inception.
