Private security service (bodyguard)

Concerned labour department in your state will be provided information relating to rules & regulations of security services in the area. Please consult labour departmnt office. 

According to my opinion your job as a private body guard is to protect the person who has engaged you. As a body guard your role is very limited to safeguard the interest of the person who enaged you. You are bound by the Sec 96 of IPC right to private Defence only.

There is no rule or law to engage body guards. It has become fashion nowa days for business man, cine actors/celebrities, pubs to engage body guards.The recent name for a bodyguard is Bouncer., if I am correct Yesterday incident happended in Hyderabad.. The body guards/Bouncers bet 3 customers severally on some bill issue in a PUB. They were arrested and sent to jail.

Thank you all for your replies - most interesting in terms of standards, hence my interest in this area.  Bouncers and Bodyguards in my professional opinion are 2 separate occupations, even then just by calling oneself a bodyguard without qualification or accreditation does not do the occupation justice (currently)

If anyone wishes to connect with me, please feel free to do so as I have ideas that need to materialise with the correct legal minds.

I’ve had a couple of conversations with friends and relatives who’ve used private security services, and one thing that stood out to me was that having a bodyguard isn’t just about having someone physically present.

A relative of mine hired a private security professional for a few days when there were concerns about travelling to different places for work. What surprised him was how much attention was given to basic things like route planning, staying alert in crowded areas, and maintaining a low profile. He initially thought the guard would simply walk alongside him, but the job was much more practical than that.

A friend also once worked with Raxa Techno Security Solutions for security-related requirements and mentioned that professionalism and understanding the situation were more important than simply having a strong physical presence.

From what I’ve seen, the right private security service should make you feel safer without unnecessarily disrupting your normal routine.
