About the project

Civic context, methodology, and sourcing for Know RSP.

Know RSP is a citizen-led public directory focused on who has been elected, what is publicly knowable about them, and how that data is verified before it reaches the site.

Project principles

Verified public records over speculation
Structured MP data with source trails
Open corrections and transparent limitations

Project note

Project Purpose

Know RSP is a citizen-led civic transparency initiative dedicated to making information about elected representatives of the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) freely accessible to the public.

Following the 2026 Nepal General Election, we believe every citizen has the right to know who represents them in Parliament — their background, education, electoral performance, and past contributions. This project aggregates and presents that information in one place, structured and searchable.

Our mission is to reduce the information gap between elected officials and the citizens they serve.

Data Methodology

All data is manually researched, cross-referenced from multiple sources, and verified before publication. Our process:

Primary research — Data is first sourced from the Election Commission of Nepal and Parliament publications.
Cross-referencing — Each data point is verified against at least two independent sources where possible.
Community review — We welcome corrections and additions from the public through our GitHub repository.
Dated entries — Every MP profile records when data was last verified.

Project note

Primary Sources

We rely on the following primary sources for all data:

Parliament of Nepal
MP profiles, committee memberships, legislative records
Wikipedia (Nepali & English)
Biographical information and cross-reference

News articles and electoral coverage
RSP Official Website
Party-published profiles and announcements
