Why has violence erupted in Nepal?
The Gen Z protest led by students in Nepal is at its peak. It started in protest against the government ban on social media, but now this protest has turned into a big campaign. As soon as the protest intensified, Prime Minister Oli had to resign, while before that the ban on social media was also lifted, but despite this the protest is not stopping. The protesters set fire to many government buildings and houses of many big leaders, including the Parliament House.
