Nepal Protests | Why Nepal Gen-Z Is Protesting Against Balen Shah Government
Hundreds of people came out on the roads in Nepal's Kathmandu today in protest against the government's move to evict squatters without a resettlement plan
Hundreds of people came out on the roads in Nepal's Kathmandu today in protest against the government's move to evict squatters without a resettlement plan. This is the first major challenge against the government led by Prime Minister Balen Shah, who had supported the fierce Gen-Z protest last year that ended the reign of KP Sharma Oli and his team. The protest that began against the Kathmandu Metropolitan City Police has been going on for some days.
It escalated sharply after many young people criticised the government for evicting and relocating landless people to holding centres. The latest protest, which has a distinct Gen-Z character, highlighted the "inhuman" living conditions of the evicted people. Local reports said some activists, students and journalists have been arrested for raising the issues of people forced to live at the holding centres.
