The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) has said, there is no need to take action on anonymous or pseudonymous complaints of corruption against government employees. In its directive to all ministries and public sector undertakings, the Commission said that such complaints only needed to be filed. The directive comes after CVC received references from departments and organisations seeking clarification on the action to be taken on anonymous or pseudonymous complaints, which were acted upon.<br/><br/>News agency PTI quotes a senior CVC official as saying that the Commission usually gets a number of complaints against a government employee when he or she is being considered for a senior level post or for some important assignment. He said the intention behind filing such a complaint is intended to delay the process of granting vigilance clearance to an employee. The official added that people have been asked to give verifiable details of corruption charges along with their details so that prompt action can be taken against guilty and to ensure that honest officers are not harassed.
