Central Vigilance Commission - Role

Role

The CVC is not an investigating agency, and works through either the CBI or through the Departmental Chief Vigilance Officers.

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.

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

The CVC has also been publishing a list of corrupt government officials against which it has recommended punitive action.
