Story of a corrupt Chief Viglance Officer (CVO)

Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) appoints CVO in various government offices. Think what will happen if this CVO himself is corrupt. Here is the story of a CVO officer:

"Running a fake institute from within the IIT Kharagpur Campus is not the only way in which Amit Kumar Ghosh of the aerospace department made his name. From 2006 to 2008, Ghosh was chairman of Joint Entrance Examination, Kharagpur, when the maximum number of bunglings took place. Documents with TOI show that he not only gave false statements but on his charge, material related to JEE was destroyed despite clear rules that it be retained for a year.

Ironically, he was chief vigiliance officer of IIT, Kharagpur till recently.
On August 24, 2006, much after students had taken admission in IITs, as individual marks of candidates were released, it was found that students scoring just 154 marks were declared qualified though students with 279 marks were disqualified.
If this was not enough, Ghosh's response to a student who had not qualified despite scoring 231 marks (104 in physics, 75 in maths and 52 in chemistry) was that "he has not satisfied the marks eligibility criteria laid down for individual subjects as well as the aggregate marks in JEE 2006".
It was revealed in May 2007 that cutoffs for maths, physics, chemistry and aggregate were 37, 48, 55 and 154 respectively for general category students in JEE 2006, and the candidate in question scored much higher marks. But the procedure for cutoff calculation revealed by IITs showed that for maths, physics and chemistry, it should have been 7, 4 and 6 respectively instead of official figure of 37, 48 and 55.
Four different cutoff procedures submitted by IITs could not come to the stated official cutoffs. It also came to light that 994 candidates were deprived of admission due to discrepancy in calculation of cutoffs.
Even as pressure was mounting on IIT directors, chairpersons of board of governors and council members about irregularities, Ghosh sought an approval on October 31, 2006 for shredding of JEE specific material, including ORS scripts. The IIT statute clearly states that JEE papers will not be destroyed for a year."
