A young Nepali man, who lost his brother during the recent demonstrations, said the Gen Z movement ‘has only begun’ after successfully ousting the government. The protests, which began as a response to the government’s handling of the pandemic and its economic policies, have since evolved into a broader movement for political change. Activists from Gen Z, a demographic known for their activism and use of social media, are now pushing for reforms that include greater transparency and accountability in governance. The movement has gained momentum, drawing support from various sectors of Nepali society, though it faces challenges from both within and outside the country.
Despite the government’s resignation, the protesters remain vigilant, emphasizing that the fight for their demands is far from over. They are calling for sustained efforts to ensure that the reforms they have achieved are not reversed. The role of youth in the political landscape of Nepal is gaining significant attention, with many observers highlighting the potential impact of this movement on the country’s future. As the situation develops, the international community is closely watching to see how this young generation’s push for change will shape Nepal’s political and social structure.
