The Haryana State Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau has identified 140 government officials and employees as alleged habitual offenders in corruption and bribery-related cases, marking a significant step in the state’s ongoing drive to curb corruption in public offices.
According to officials, the bureau has prepared a list of individuals who have repeatedly come under scrutiny in corruption investigations. The move aims to strengthen monitoring of officials with a history of alleged involvement in bribery and ensure stricter action against repeat offenders.
Authorities said the identified officials belong to various government departments across Haryana. Their records have been compiled based on previous vigilance cases, complaints, and ongoing investigations. The bureau is expected to closely monitor these officials while taking legal action wherever sufficient evidence is available.
The initiative is part of the Haryana government’s broader anti-corruption campaign to improve transparency and accountability in public administration. Officials said departments have been directed to cooperate fully with vigilance investigations and ensure that cases involving corruption are dealt with promptly.
The Anti-Corruption Bureau has also urged citizens to report instances of bribery and misuse of official positions through its complaint mechanisms. Authorities reiterated that strict legal action would be taken against any public servant found guilty of corruption under the relevant provisions of law.
The latest development reflects the Haryana government’s continued focus on strengthening vigilance measures and promoting clean governance across the state. Officials said further investigations and departmental proceedings will be initiated wherever necessary based on the evidence collected.
