    Vigilance Manual 2017 [SEVENTH EDITION] Central Vigilance Commission First Edition 1968 Second Edition 1971 Third Edition 1974 Fourth Edition 1982 Fifth Edition 1991 Sixth Edition 2005 Foreword Probity and integrity are the bedrock of good governance. Vigilance administration is a fundamental and vital function of the management. It is intended that this comprehensive Vigilance Manual serves as a useful reference book, a vade mecum, for effective Vigilance administration thereby facilitating good governance. The Vigilance Manual was brought out in 2005. There have been many significant developments since then. Several Circulars, Guidelines, etc., have been issued by the Government and the Commission from time to time. There is an imperative need for compiling them in a single document. With this objective, for the first time Special chapters on Public Sector Enterprises, Banking & Insurance Companies and several guidelines issued by the Chief Technical Examiners’ office have been integrated in this Manual. Separate chapters on CBI, PIDPI Resolution, Preventive Vigilance, Disciplinary Proceedings & Suspension and some other relevant issues have been introduced. Most of the relevant Circulars and instructions of the Government and the Commission have also been cited. An Online Version , hyperlinking the cited orders and circulars to their host website is also being released on the Commission’s website www.cvc.nic.in. The underlying idea is to periodically update the Online version of the Manual. This Manual has been meticulously and painstakingly compiled by Shri Praveen Sinha, Additional Secretary in the Commission. He was ably assisted by Sri M. A. Khan, Under Secretary and Shri H. K. Beniwal, Director (Retd.).The Commission compliments them and acknowledges the efforts and contribution of all those who have contributed to this compilation.
