Youth and Sports Ministry Prepares to Take Action Against Cricket Association of Nepal

Kathmandu. The Ministry of Youth and Sports has started preparations to take action against the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) for not cooperating in the investigation of a complaint filed with the Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority. 

The ministry has written to the National Sports Council (NSC) directing it to proceed with the action against CAN. According to the ministry, CAN has refused to provide the accounting and records-related documents that it is supposed to submit to the ministry and the council as per Section 28 of the National Sports Development Act, 2077. The ministry believes the file remains undecided as CAN has repeatedly corresponded with the Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority in the months of Mangsir and Falgun of 2081 without submitting the details.

The ministry, through a ministerial decision, has directed CAN to provide a clarification with a 'final warning'. As per Section 29 of the Act, a response has been sought as to why CAN should not be penalized and suspended.

If CAN does not provide the requested documents and a satisfactory explanation, the ministry will take strict action, including suspending the association, as stated in the letter. The ministry has given a directive order to the National Sports Council to take necessary action in this regard.
