Context:

On Sept. 8, 2025, Nepali gen-z organized a peaceful protest against the corrupt politicians in Nepal. After the state responded with overwhelming force (using live ammunition instead of blanks and rubber rounds) resulting in 20 deaths and hundreds more injured, more people joined in the protest on Sept.9, 2025.

Ministers resigned from their post and the Prime Minister, KP Sharma Oli resigned from his post and is now allegedly planning to flee the country. Enraged due to corruption and unaccountability, protestors set fire to the parliament.

Didn't Nepalese officials murder citizens in broad daylight just the other day?

No wonder that people are reacting.
