KATHMANDU, March 31: The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) held discussions with its ministers regarding the distribution of national identity cards to students.

During a regular meeting on Sunday, ministers representing the RSP deliberated on the initiative to provide national ID cards to students.

Mukul Dhakal, general secretary and spokesperson of RSP, stated, "There have been discussions on preparing for the distribution of national identity cards to students."
