KATHMANDU: Asset Investigation Commission 2026, established to investigate allegedly illicit wealth accumulated by public officials, has received more than 11,000 complaints, the government announced on Saturday while presenting the achievements of its first 100 days in office.

Speaking at a press conference, government spokesperson and Minister for Education and Sports Sasmita Pokharel said the commission had already begun processing the complaints.

“We have established the Asset Investigation Commission 2026. It has so far received more than 11,000 complaints, and the necessary procedures are already under way,” Pokharel said.

The commission issued a public notice for citizens to submit information on assets allegedly acquired through illegal or unexplained means by individuals holding public office.

The appeal covers politically exposed persons, civil servants and other public officials, including assets held in Nepal or abroad under their own names or those of family members, relatives or other associates.

Under the commission’s guidelines, any individual possessing information, evidence or credible allegations that a public office holder has accumulated wealth through unlawful means may file a complaint.

Complainants are encouraged to provide supporting documents wherever possible, along with available contact details, including telephone numbers and email addresses, relating to the individuals concerned.
