State-run miner NMDC has launched a three-month campaign ahead of Vigilance Awareness Week (VAW) 2026, with a capacity building programme conducted by its vigilance department. The initiative, aligned with Central Vigilance Commission guidelines, aims to strengthen transparency, compliance, ethical conduct and governance across the organisation.
Director (Finance) Anurag Kapil and Chief Vigilance Officer C. Neelakanta Reddy addressed employees at the programme. NMDC said the campaign will organise further awareness and capacity-building events before VAW 2026 to reinforce values of integrity and probity.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The Central Vigilance Commission mandates all public sector enterprises to observe Vigilance Awareness Week annually, typically in October or November, with a prescribed theme. NMDC's three-month prelude is an unusually long preparatory period compared to the standard shorter campaigns run by most PSUs. As a Navratna company under the Ministry of Steel, NMDC's adherence to CVC guidelines is audited, and transparency initiatives can affect its performance evaluation by administrative ministries. The effectiveness of this campaign will be measured by whether NMDC records a reduction in vigilance complaints or an increase in employee disclosures in the coming fiscal year.
