In a significant step towards strengthening governance and ethical leadership in India’s public sector, Coal India Limited Chief Vigilance Officer Shri Brajesh Kumar Tripathy addressed vigilance officers of Oil India Limited during a high-level Vigilance Review Meeting in Siliguri, West Bengal.
The session served as a platform for cross-organisational learning, where Coal India shared its innovative vigilance practices and governance reforms aimed at building a transparent, accountable, and value-driven work culture.
Addressing the officers, Shri Tripathy outlined Coal India’s focus on preventive and proactive vigilance mechanisms, explaining how these measures have helped strengthen internal governance systems and promote ethical functioning across the organisation.
He emphasised the guiding principles of “Reform, Transform, Perform and Inform,” calling for continuous improvement, participative governance, and institutional transparency in public sector enterprises.
A key message from the interaction was Coal India’s positive and participative vigilance approach, which encourages employees to make bold and bona fide decisions without fear, while maintaining integrity and compliance with governance standards.
Shri Tripathy said that vigilance should not be seen only as a monitoring mechanism, but as a supportive system that builds employee confidence, reduces fear-based decision-making, and promotes responsible administration.
The meeting also highlighted the growing trend of knowledge-sharing among major PSUs, where best practices in governance, ethics, and vigilance are being exchanged to strengthen institutional frameworks across India’s strategic sectors.
Officials said such interactions play an important role in improving governance standards, promoting ethical leadership, and creating a stronger culture of accountability in public sector organisations.
Coal India’s presentation at the Oil India vigilance review reflects the broader push within India’s PSU ecosystem to build modern, transparent, and participative governance models that support both performance and integrity.
