 The Central Vigilance Commission has given an approval for setting up a National Association of central and state level anti-corruption bodies to suggest the best ways to check corruption in the country.

The proposed body will be closed on the lines of International Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities (IAACA), the global body on anti-corruption which facilitates implementation of the United Nations Convention against Corruption.The proposal came up for discussion during a meeting of Vigilance Study Circle in Kolkata yesterday.

Vigilance Commissioner R Srikumar said that the proposed body may discuss best practices being adopted by its members in a particular state and other anti-corruption measures.




In an ambitious move, the Central Vigilance Commission has proposed to lead a global task force to promote international cooperation in enforcement and prevention of corruption offences. The proposal was discussed during the recent executive committee meeting of the International Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities in Tanzania. It was attended by chiefs of anti-corruption watchdogs from various nations ncluding Central Vigilance Commissioner Pradeep Kumar.
In a presentation, Mr. Kumar said, the objectives of the proposed task force would be to facilitate exchange of information about the anti-corruption organisations, systems,procedures, practices, and experiences among anti corruption authorities and other stakeholders. He said it would promote international cooperation in enforcement and prevention, define best practices and develop benchmarks and new approaches to tackle corruption in its various manifestations and assist in the capacity building of anti-corruption authorities ACAs. The proposed body also aims at encouraging continuous cooperation between ACAs on issues of mutual concern, promoting best practice studies, research and data analysis consistent with diversity and sovereignty considerations.


n order to ensure greater transparency and fast handling of corruption complaints, the Central Vigilance Commission, CVC is considering sending SMS alerts and emails to inform complainants about its status. It has asked Chief Vigilance Officers, CVOs of all government departments to use a state-of-the-art online application specifically developed for the purpose while dealing with people's grievances. 

At present, the Commission has anti-corruption hotline toll free number 1XXX-XX-0180 and 011-24651000 to lodge complaints related to unnecessary lingering of work in any department.
