The spokesperson said, the Governor was "disturbed" by the Chief Vigilance Commissioner (CVC) Kuldeep Khoda's recent report to him which noted that a large number of complaints or enquiries referred by the CVC to Government Departments have been pending for the past several years without any reason given. Vora has called for time-bound attention by all concerned State Government Department for disposal of all these complaints without any further delay, he said. The Governor has also advised the Government to issue clear cut directions to Departmental Vigilance Officers to ensure disposal of all pending corruption related complaints in their respective departments within a time frame to achieve zero pendency by end of March, 2016.
