The inclusion of "Lokpal" in Section 2 of the Central Vigilance Commission Act, 2003 shows:

Section 2(da) and the related references to the Lokpal were inserted in the Central Vigilance Commission Act, 2003 by the Lokpal and Lokayuktas Act, 2013 to align it with that later law, for instance for complaints the Lokpal refers to the Commission under sections 8(2)(c) and 8A. The Commission continues as a separate body; it was neither merged into the Lokpal nor stripped of its powers, and the Prevention of Corruption Act remains in force.
