Along the lines of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Maan ki Baat' programme, Central Vigilance Commissioner K V Chowdary would interact with people on Monday via radio on the issue of anti-corruption.
Interviews of Chowdary and Vigilance Commissioner T M Bhasin would also be telecast on DD National during the vigilance awareness week, beginning October 26, to make people aware about the ill effects of corruption.
The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) has been laying stress on preventive vigilance and driving home the point that vigilance should not be seen in isolation but as a tool to achieve good governance and better operational results. Therefore, the theme for the vigilance awareness this year is 'preventive vigilance as a tool of good governance', a release issued by Personnel Ministry said.
"In order to convey the importance of preventive vigilance and also the message that corruption ultimately ends in a tragedy, eight short episodes, each of half-an-hour duration, have been made which would be telecast during the vigilance awareness week on Doordarshan's DD national channel and DDK, Delhi station," it said.
Interviews of Chowdary and Bhasin would also be telecast on DD national and DDK, Delhi respectively during the vigilance awareness week, the release said.
Chowdary would be participating and taking questions from the public on the issues related to anti-corruption in the 'Public Speak' programme on FM Gold channel of All India Radio which would be aired live on October 26, 2015 from 9.35 PM to 10.05 PM, it said.
