India's Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) has come to occupy a key position as an institution that promotes good governance and integrity in the public affairs of the country. This book is a story of the 50-year journey of the CVC, a saga of institution building and fighting against corruption. It recounts the birth of the CVC in 1964 and its rebirth in a new form in 1998 and shows how public debate over the years has shaped this institution to enable it meet the expectations of the citizens and other stakeholders. The rare photographs, documents, and interesting facts try to re-create the bygone era. Some of the former Central Vigilance Commissioners share their experiences and narrate the both challenges faced and contributions made by them. It is hoped that this book will not only create awareness among people about the institution of the CVC but also prove inspirational in the quest for good governance in India.
