The Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 (PC Act) and the Central Vigilance Commission Act, 2003 (CVC Act) provide the effective investigative machinery into the offences of corruption. The Central Vigilance Commission alongwith the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Ministries concerned every year draw specific lists of officers of doubtful integrity who are kept under surveillance. The enactment of the Right to Information Act, 2005 as a comprehensive legislation provides an effective mechanism for access to information and disclosure by the authorities to work against any corrupt practices and exploitation.

So far as CBI is concerned, as on 31.01.2010, there are 1061 cases under investigation. The time taken for investigation of cases by the CBI depends on the nature of cases, number of voluminous documents requiring scrutiny and the number of witnesses. CBI endeavors to complete investigation in all cases at the earliest. There is a laid down system of holding monthly and quarterly review meetings where the cases under investigation are examined with a view to finalize them early.

This information was given by the Minister of State in the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions Shri Prithviraj Chavan in written reply to question in the Lok Sabha.
