Massive protests are sweeping Nepal as demonstrators, particularly from the Gen Z community, express outrage over a recent social media ban and ongoing government corruption. Tensions have escalated dramatically, resulting in violent clashes that have claimed at least 19 lives and left hundreds injured. In response to the protests, which included arson and stone-pelting, the government has lifted its ban on a number of social media platforms. The unrest was further fueled by accusations against political leaders and growing calls for accountability. The UN has expressed readiness to assist in the situation, highlighting a broader concern over internet freedom and youth engagement in governance. The protests have seen a significant mobilization, with thousands taking to the streets, demanding not only the restoration of social media access but a pledge for a transparent and accountable government.
