Minister for Urban Development Metmani Chaudhary has said he hoped the RSS like organisations would have contribution to the institutional development of the Constitution and the federal democratic republic. Speaking at a ceremony organised to inaugurate newly constructed building of the National News Agency (RSS), he hoped for the contribution of RSS in building the socialist economy as well. In his address to the function, the Minister said with the physical elevation of the RSS would facilitate a ground for delivering fact-based and investigative news reports and further improving the news quality. The RSS new structures were built at the cost of Rs 168 million allocated by the then National Reconstructions Authority as the RSS old structures were damaged by the 2015 April earthquake. The building has two blocks: A and B comprising 54 rooms and Prime Minister Deuba inaugurated it. The foundation stone of building was laid on 26 October, 2017. The RSS was established on Fagun 7, 2018 BS (February 18, 1962) as the Rastriya Sambad Samiti which was later named Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS) by merging two media Nepal Sambad Samiti (NSS) and the Sagarmatha Sambad Samiti (SSS) with a view to delivering credible, fact-based, and authentic news reports at home and abroad. —rss
