A meeting of the Council of Ministers convened on Thursday extended the tenure of the Commission by a month, Minister for Communications and Information Jagdish Kharel, who is also the spokesperson, said.
The tenure of the Commission led by former Judge Gauri Bahadur Karki was expiring on December 24.
As many as 76 individuals had lost their lives during the Gen Z uprising that took place on September 8 and 9.
