Nepal Police

Here is a comprehensive summary of the Nepal Police article:

Nepal Police is the primary national law enforcement agency of Nepal, operating under the Ministry of Home Affairs to uphold law and order, investigate crimes, and manage duties ranging from VIP protection to disaster response. Its modern history began after the fall of the Rana regime, with the Police Headquarters established in Kathmandu in 1952 and Toran Shamsher J.B. Rana appointed as the first Inspector General. Following the democratic movement of 1990, the force modernized and went international, deploying its first UN peacekeeping contingent in 1991, with over 2,000 personnel having served in blue helmets since. Currently led by Inspector General Dan Bahadur Karki (the 33rd IGP, appointed in November 2025), the force comprises about 79,554 personnel spread across 2,344 permanent and 507 temporary offices. Organizationally, it is structured into provincial and district offices, plus specialized units like the Central Investigation Bureau (CIB), Narcotics Control Bureau, and Cyber Bureau, which have pioneered tools such as a polygraph section for criminal investigations since 2014.
