Fighting corruption, Vittal style
By P.H. Vaishnav
THE continuing media focus on the new
Central Vigilance Commissioner and the reactions to his
statements divert attention from questions relating to
making the Central Vigilance Commission institutionally
better adapted to the fulfilment of those very objectives
for which it was given a statutory status. Politicians
have questioned his jurisdiction to reopen the Hawala
case through the Income Tax Department. Officers have not
generally appreciated the projection of the names of
those under vigilance proceedings on the website and the
Internet.
