Retired IAS officer Sanjay Kothari (IAS:1978:HY), the secretary to President Ram Nath Kovind, took oath as the new Chief Vigilance Commissioner (CVC) on Saturday.
The post of CVC was lying vacant since June last year and Vigilance Commissioner Sharad Kumar was holding the interim charge of the top post since then.
Kothari was named as new CVC by a high powered committee headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in February this year. In the same meeting, ex-Broadcasting Secretary Bimal Julka was appointed as the next Chief Information Commissioner (CIC).
