The
Central Vigilance Commissioner,
Mr. Nagraj Vittal, said on Sunday that he was not personally happy with
the recommendations of a Joint Parliamentary committee seeking to make it
mandatory for the CVC to take permission from the government before
conducting inquiry or investigations against officers of the rank of joint
secretaries or above.
He,
however, added that through it was an attempt to erode the autonomy of the
institution, he would dutifully comply with the directives from the
government.
He
said, “ I am not happy with the decision of the government to accept the
report’s recommendations. However, being a public servant, I would
accept the decision with humility.”
