CAPSI
Central Association of Private Security Industry (CAPSI) is an apex body of the private security industry representing the wider interests of 10 million guardsmen & women and 35 thousand private security agencies operating pan India. CAPSI’s governing processes are being guided by an eminent Board of Governors having former Army Generals, Veteran Police and Para-Military officers, high ranking Intelligence Professionals from Central Bureau of Investigation and premier governmental intelligence agencies and renowned Risk Managers.
The Executive leadership of CAPSI is provided by Security Entrepreneurs of Second Generation who have achieved excellence in the business of security management in India and abroad. The unique bouquet of experience and entrepreneurship has taken CAPSI to its new height within a period of 19 years, especially after the enactment of the Private Security Agencies Regulation Act-2005. The CAPSI is now playing a leadership role in the formulation of “Global Standards and Best Practices” for Private Security Industry world over.
CAPSI was invited by United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) to participate in the “Planning Meeting” for Civilian Private Security Services their Role Oversight & Contributions to Crime Prevention & Community Safety held at Abu Dhabi (UAE). At this meeting CAPSI was taken as the member of the Standing Committee to take this UN initiative further. CAPSIs initiatives and relentless pursuit eventually led to the Parliament enacting the PSAR Act in 2005 which was quickly followed by the States adopting their PSARA Rules, thereby taking the first step towards transforming the Industry from a Non-organised one to an Organised Sector.
