NEW DELHI: Deposits of scrapped currency notes made by central government employees post demonetisation will be probed by anti-corruption watchdog Central Vigilance Commission (CVC), its chief K V Chowdary said today. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had on November 8 last year announced the scrapping of old Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes. "So how do we see that whether the amount deposited by them (the employees) commensurates with their income or not. The CVC expects the CBDT to provide more specific data on the deposits. The CBDT is looking into certain suspected deposits made by various individuals, especially during the demonetisation period, Chowdary said.
