FSU Election: Things to Consider
"The discussion was held for holding the FSU elections on February 14. During the meeting, leaders suggested the student leaders to shorten and adjust election procedures as some of the scheduled election programs are already missed in some campuses because of the protests of various student groups," said Ramesh Malla at the PM's Secretariat.
