Prem Prakash (IOFS) Chief Vigilance Officer, SJVN emphasized the vital role of citizens in eradicating corruption from public life. He further said that corruption has no place within an organization as it serves no purpose other than to benefit the corrupt individual.

Marasamy, Executive Director, Sh. C. S Yadav, Chief General Manager and Sh. Anil Goyal, Deputy CVO was also present.

Additionally, SJVN employees conducted a Role Play session to provide information on PIDPI-related guidelines and how to file PIDPI complaints.
