Update from Nepal Genz Protest:

Key Demands: Stand against Corruption, Governance and Free Speech, However international media is focusing only on social media bans.

  1. Police have been brutal and open fired targeting GenZ/ students in their head and chest who were protesting silently yesterday, until last report: 19 killed and more than 50 are in critical treatment and many injured.

  2. Government has lifted the social media ban last night

  3. The Home Minister resigned last night, and few other Ministers from the Coalition Government representing Nepali Congress- biggest party with 89 Seats. KP Sharma Oli Prime Minister of Nepal is leading the Government Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist) (CPN-UML) second biggest party 78 seats

  4. Curfew has been imposed in major cities of Nepal since yesterday afternoon, Youths and people are continuing protests all over Nepal defying curfew orders and calling for the resignation of the Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli after killing of innocent students

  5. House of Sher Bahadur Deuba ( former Prime Minister) and President of Nepali Congress- biggest party has been attacked today morning by youth in Kathmandu

  6. House of Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda ( former Prime Minister) and Chairperson of the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist Centre) has been attacked today morning. He is the leader of the Opposition Party

  7. Police offices and offices of the different political parties have been torched by GenZ all over Nepal.

  8. Exact number is yet to come, we have heard lots of gun fire were there. Also the permission was for rubber bullet but armed pokice forced used the real one.

  9. They killed minor, with a school uniform with a real bullet in head and chest directly. This was not just for defense. This is extensive use of force.

  10. Today there is also protest happening in some places, but the large area of kathamndu municipality is been curfewed since yesterday.

Nepal is under a Political Crisis. The situation in Nepal for a few days is uncertain. We tragically lost innocent lives who were exercising their democratic rights to freedom of speech and peaceful assembly. Currently we need support from international news and medias, they are falsely writing the protest for social media ban, but it is against the corruption.

    Nepal is a mountainous landlocked country that acts as a buffer state between Chinese-occupied Tibet and India. I wonder if either state will use this unrest as a pretext to seize power.

      India likely won’t - we were all one entity for thousands of years and share a lot of culture - but it will want to counteract whatever China does.
