Описание: Nepal’s Youth vs. The System | Gen Z Revolt | World Dispatch

Discover how a controversial social media ban on 26 platforms like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and X—imposed by PM K.P. Sharma Oli's government on September 4, 2025 ignited widespread fury among youth fed up with corruption, nepotism, and economic inequality. What began as viral exposés of "nepo kids" flaunting elite privileges amid Nepal's stagnant $1,400 per capita income exploded into deadly anti-corruption protests starting September 7 in Kathmandu. Gen Z protesters, making up over 40% of the population, stormed parliament, torched politicians' homes, and clashed with security forces using tear gas and live ammo, leading to at least 51 deaths, over 600 injuries, and the release of 13,000 prisoners in the chaos. This leaderless revolution, organized via VPNs and apps like Discord and TikTok, forced Oli's resignation on September 9 and marked Nepal's deadliest unrest in decades.

As of September 12, 2025, Nepal remains under nationwide curfew with army patrols in Kathmandu, while protesters push for former Chief Justice Sushila Karki as interim PM to lead anti-corruption reforms. The social media ban was lifted on September 9, but damage assessment reveals burned government buildings, including parliament and Singha Durbar, and a power vacuum sparking talks between youth leaders and military chiefs. Explore the future of Nepal amid this Gen Z revolution could it inspire youth-led change or lead to further instability with external influences from India and China? We break down global lessons for political leaders on digital rights, nepotism crackdowns, and avoiding disproportionate force.
