Gen Z-led protests in Kathmandu, Nepal, on September 8-9, 2025, brought down Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli's government after a deadly crackdown and widespread attacks on government buildings. The demonstrations began over a government block on major social media platforms and reflected broader anger at corruption and limited economic opportunities. Police used live ammunition, tear gas and water cannons. Crowds defied a curfew and burned parliament, the Supreme Court and other buildings. Oli resigned on September 9.

Police put the death toll at 72 on September 14, including 59 protesters, three police officers and 10 fleeing inmates. Later reporting put the total at 77. Crowds gathered around burning buildings, and bloodied casualties were carried near an ambulance. Former Chief Justice Sushila Karki was sworn in as interim prime minister on September 12, becoming Nepal's first female prime minister, and parliament was dissolved. In the March 5, 2026, election, former Kathmandu Mayor Balendra Shah's Rastriya Swatantra Party won a majority. Shah also defeated Oli in Oli's parliamentary constituency.

Gen-Z known as the people who were born with cellphones glued to their hands. They don’t know any other life than what their phones tell them. No wonder they’re upset. Social media is their life.

To be fair, they also live in a third-world shithole, so of course social media is important to them!

It's more than that actually. A viral online movement, dubbed the "nepo kids" trend, had been exposing the lavish lifestyles of politicians' children on platforms like TikTok, contrasting their wealth with the struggles of ordinary Nepalis.

Nepal's youth, who make up a significant portion of the population, face high unemployment rates. This lack of jobs and opportunities at home forces thousands of young people to seek work abroad every day. This economic frustration, combined with the perception that political elites and their families are living in luxury, fueled the public's anger.


I can understand them but not the killings.
