the introduction of figuring in agreed list as one of conditions for denying vigilance is very dangerous and it introduces arbitariness and is against all canons of fairplay.It is known how superiors make use of this list to take vengeance against those who are upright and do not blindly follow the illegal directions of superiors.As per CVC guidelines for preliminary investigation 9 months all together is prescribed.Hence normally any preliminary enquiry shall be completed within 9 to 10 months. Then if some thing established charge sheet will be issued. But keeping ones' name for more than one year in agreed list it self is illegal and added to that now vigilance clearence is denied.This clause introduces arbitariness and officers will be at the mercy of their superiors ,akin to going back to feudal days. The associations shall protest against this.
