The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) was established on the recommendation of the Santhanam Committee.
The Committee on Prevention of Corruption, chaired by K. Santhanam, was appointed in 1962 to examine issues related to corruption in government departments. The committee submitted its report in 1964, recommending the establishment of a Central Vigilance Commission to oversee vigilance administration and advise on anti-corruption measures.
The CVC was initially established by an executive resolution in 1964. It was later given statutory status through the Central Vigilance Commission Act, 2003. The Narasimham Committee is known for its recommendations on banking sector reforms, while the Dinesh Goswami and Tarkunde Committees focused on electoral reforms.
