Major protests erupted across Nepal, launching the country into chaos – a wave of Gen Z–led demonstrations that quickly turned into violent riots and what many now call the Nepal revolution. Sparked by a government social media ban, the uprising saw tens of thousands of young Nepalis flood the streets of Kathmandu, demanding change after years of corruption and political failure. For years, young Nepalis watched the same political leaders cling to power while nothing changed. The children of the elite flaunted their privilege online as millions struggled just to get by.
