Summary

Monitor notes: COMPLETED LATE but STRENGTHENED: Jurisdiction expanded Apr 30 to include AG, Chief Ministers, and senior constitutional officers. Commission actively working since Apr 22. 5-member panel, 1-year mandate, chaired by former SC Justice Bhandari.

What is this?

Forming a high-powered committee with legal, financial, and investigative experts to investigate the assets of all high-ranking officials who have served since 1990 (BS 2048) — identifying illegally accumulated wealth.

Impact on people

For the first time, Nepal's political and bureaucratic elite face a comprehensive wealth audit. Illegally accumulated assets can be recovered and returned to public coffers.

Why it matters

Massive, unexplained wealth accumulation by politicians and bureaucrats is visible across Nepal — luxury homes, foreign investments, children in expensive foreign universities — on modest official salaries.
