KATHMANDU, Feb 14: The system of passing the trial by scoring only 70 points to get a driver's license has been implemented in Bagmati Province from Tuesday.
According to Harihar Pokharel, the spokesperson of Bagmati Province Ministry of Labour, Employment and Transport, the 70-point system for driving license trial exam has been implemented after necessary preparations.

Earlier, Bagmati Province could not implement this system even though it promised to implement it soon. Pokharel said that although it was decided to implement it from Monday (February 13), the system came into implementation only from today because it was a public holiday on Monday.
Similarly, failure to implement such a system led to delays in the distribution of licenses as well as the increase in the number of drivers taking out licenses illegally.
Pokharel said that there will be no such problem. “Earlier, only 30 percent passed the trial examinations. But now 70 percent of the drivers will pass the trial,” he said. Bagmati Province expects that the 70-point system will reduce the hassles to obtain driver's license.
