Aryal named acting chief of Rastriya Swatantra Party

Labour Minister Dol Prasad Aryal will also lead the parliamentary party.

The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) on Friday picked vice-chair Dol Prasad Aryal as its acting president after the Supreme Court earlier in the day said party chief Rabi Lamichhane does not have a valid Nepali citizenship and is ineligible for holding a lawmaker position, and by extension, party chief.
