The central government has appointed A S Rajeev as the Vigilance Commissioner in the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC). A S Rajeev previously served as the Managing Director & CEO of Bank of Maharashtra, a public sector bank.
In a recent development, Rajeev chose to retire voluntarily from the position of Managing Director & CEO of Bank of Maharashtra, and his request was duly accepted by the competent authority, as per a letter from the Department of Financial Services (DFS).
According to the CVC Act, the Central Vigilance Commission now functions as a three-member body, comprising the Central Vigilance Commissioner and two Vigilance Commissioners. Praveen Kumar Srivastava has held the position of Central Vigilance Commissioner since May 2023, while Arvinda Kumar has been serving as a Vigilance Commissioner since August 2022.
