The arrangement will ensure that the vigilance responsibilities at NEPA Limited continue to be handled until a regular CVO is appointed.
NEPA CVO Post Vacant Since December 2025
The CVO position at NEPA Limited has remained without a regular incumbent following the premature repatriation of Vinit Kumar (IRS-C&CE:2013) to his parent cadre.
