Nepal’s “Gen Z” Protests Storm Parliament

Youth anger erupts into political upheaval.

In Kathmandu, thousands of young protesters stormed Nepal’s federal parliament, denouncing corruption, censorship, and unemployment. The unrest, led largely by Gen Z activists, forced the Prime Minister to resign.
Protesters say they want a new generation of leadership that reflects their priorities: transparency, jobs, and digital freedom.
Analysts warn of instability but also see potential for democratic renewal if reforms follow. The protests underscore how a rising youth demographic is reshaping politics in South Asia.
