It has the status of an autonomous body, free of control from any executive authority, charged with monitoring all vigilance activity under the Central Government of India, advising various authorities in central Government organizations in planning, executing, reviewing and reforming their vigilance work. It was set up by the Government of India in February, 1964 on the recommendations of the ''Committee on Prevention of Corruption'', headed by Shri K. Santhanam Committee, to advise and guide Central Government agencies in the field of vigilance.〔http://cvc.gov.in/cvc_back.htm〕 Nittoor Srinivasa Rau, was selected as the first Chief Vigilance Commissioner of India.

The only investigation carried out by the CVC is that of examining Civil Works of the Government which is done through the Chief Technical Officer.〔I De on Administrative Law, Tripathi(1986)〕 Corruption investigations against government officials can proceed only after the government permits them. The CVC publishes a list of cases where permissions are pending, some of which may be more than a year old.〔http://www.cvc.nic.in/spp_cbi_11072011.pdf. Released 31 May 2011, oldest case from 30/04/10 relates to Rakesh Mohan, (IAS 78 batch), ex-CEO, Delhi Jal Board〕 The Ordinance of 1998 conferred statutory status to the CVC and the powers to exercise superintendence over functioning of the Delhi Special Police Establishment, and also to review the progress of the investigations pertaining to alleged offences under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 conducted by them. In 1998 the Government introduced the CVC Bill in the Lok Sabha in order to replace the Ordinance, though it was not successful. The Bill was re-introduced in 1999 and remained with the Parliament till September 2003, when it became an Act after being duly passed in both the Houses of Parliament.〔http://cvc.nic.in/introduction.html〕 The CVC has also been publishing a list of corrupt government officials against which it has recommended punitive action.〔(121 officers named in 2011 ) and (in 2009 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Central Vigilance Commission」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
