Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday extended heartfelt greetings to Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel on the occasion of 57th Raising Day.

In a post on X, he praised the CISF, underlining their unwavering commitment, service to the nation, and patriotism.

“Greetings to the CISF personnel on Raising Day. Whether safeguarding the nation’s vital installations or shielding the nation during crises, their dedication reflects the true spirit of patriotism and professionalism. Tributes to martyrs who made the supreme sacrifice for the country,” he wrote.

Earlier on Friday, speaking at the celebrations of the 57th Raising Day of the Central Industrial Security Force in Cuttack, Amit Shah highlighted CISF’s “crucial role” in eliminating Naxalism.

“PM Modi government is determined to free the country from Naxalism by March 31, 2026, and the CISF has played a crucial role in that effort. Whether in Odisha, Chhattisgarh, or Telangana, the CISF has played a crucial role in eliminating Naxalism. I assure you that by March 31, 2026, this country will be free from Naxalism. Our security forces will completely defeat those who dream of a Red Corridor from Tirupati to Pashupati and establish their dominance,” he said.

Hailing CISF personnel’s “valour and self-sacrifice” for the country, Amit Shah further expressed his gratitude for their service.

“In 56 years, CISF has not only fulfilled its original purpose but has also transformed itself by facing all kinds of challenges. Valour and sacrifice are the hallmarks of India’s glorious history. By combining these qualities with dedication and armed with modern weaponry, CISF has demonstrated the courage to face all kinds of challenges. I express my heartfelt gratitude to all the personnel of the Force,” he said.
