The Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS; Nepali: राष्ट्रिय समाचार समिती; translation: National News Agency), having a nationwide network, is the largest and longest serving news agency in Nepal. It was established in 1961 (2018 BS) under the Rastriya Samachar Samiti Act, 2019 BS, merging two privately owned news agencies with a view to facilitating newspapers and broadcast media. With the development of news media in Nepal, subscribers of RSS have reached more than 100 newspapers, radio, online media and television. A pool of permanent and stringer reporters scattered throughout the country contributes to the news service and photo file every day.[1][2]
