The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) was set up in February 1964 by a Government of India Resolution on the recommendations of the Committee on Prevention of Corruption, which was headed by Shri K. Santhanam.

The Central Vigilance Commission was established based on the recommendations of the Santhanam Committee.

Initially, the CVC was an advisory body. It was later accorded statutory status through the Central Vigilance Commission Act, 2003. The CVC is the apex vigilance institution free of control from any executive authority, monitoring all vigilance activity under the Central Government.
