There is heavy investment in creating industry and industrial infrastructure.

Strategic Industrial Sectors like aeronautics, defence, DR&DO economic, energy, IT, nuclear power, oil, railways, space, shipping and transport etc. are important for economic development and national security.

Industry provides large scale employment.

Threats to all industries especially in the sensitive core sectors are genuinely grave.

Neither states, nor central forces are available to provide minimal essential security. The private security sector is disorganized and provides only ill trained and ill-equipped medically unfit guards who perform 12 hours and longer shift a day.

Implementation of ‘The Private Security agencies Regulation Act 2005 has been passed but its implementation is dismissal.
