ANTI-CORRUPTION LAW SERIES-4
Anticorruption law- series-4
Central Vigilance Commission Act, 2003
The central government has constituted the Central Vigilance Commission (‘CVC’) pursuant to the Central Vigilance Commission Act, 2003. The CVC is the government watchdog that is tasked with inquiring into (or commissioning an inquiry into) offences alleged to have been committed under the PCA. It is also responsible for advising, planning, executing, reviewing and reforming vigilance operations in central government organisations. The CVC is required to operate impartially and free of executive control, and can refer investigations to the CBI.
Lokpal and Lokayuktas Act, 2013
The Lokpal and Lokayuktas Act, 2013 is a recent legislation which provides for the establishment of corruption ombudsmen (called ‘Lokpal’ at the central level, and the ‘Lok Ayuktas’ at the state level), which act independently from the executive branch of the government. These bodies have been empowered to investigate allegations of corruption against public functionaries, including offences under the PCA (including allegations against the prime minister and other central ministers, members of parliament and other public servants). Further, public servants are required to declare the assets held by them (together with their spouse and dependent children) on an annual basis. However, the government has not yet appointed a ‘Lokpal’, and the provisions of this legislation are yet to be enforced in an effective manner.
