Former Director of Police, Kuldeep Khoda , is all set to be the first Chief Vigilance Commissioner (CVC) of Jammu and Kashmir.  Recommended five months ago by high power panel, Governor N N Vohra has finally given approval to the appointment of the CVC.

Besides Khoda, Governor also has approved names of two retired IAS officers, R K Jerath and Muhammad Syed Khan  as Vigilance Commissioners (VCs) to the commission.

Quoting sources, a local news service, KNS said that the file for appointment of the CVC and two VCs has been approved by the Governor, which is expected to be returned to the government on Monday or Tuesday, ‘soon after which the General Administration Department will issue orders for appointment of former Director General of Police, Kuldeep Khoda to the coveted post of CVC’.

“Orders for appointment of retired IAS officers as Vigilance Commissioners will also be issued simultaneously”, local news agency KNS quoted the sources.

After issuance of the orders by the state government, the Governor will accord an oath of office to the CVC and VCs, after that the present Vigilance Commissioner will be designated as Director Vigilance.

Khoda was an IPS officer of 1974 batch of Jammu and Kashmir cadre, who served as DGP of the state from July 2007 to May 2012.

Pertinently on May 28, a panel, comprising Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, Deputy Chief Minister Tara Chand and Law Minister Ali Mohammed Sagar had recommended the names. The panel had sent these recommendations ignoring the objections raised by the leader of opposition Mehbooba Mufti over Khoda’s nomination.
