what is the reason for nepal protest

The protests in Nepal in September 2025, known as the "Gen Z protests," started primarily due to the government's ban on 26 social media platforms, including WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook. However, this was only the immediate trigger. The deeper causes include public frustration over widespread government corruption, nepotism, mismanagement of public funds, and lack of political accountability. Young people, particularly from Generation Z, led the protests, expressing anger about suppression of free speech, economic hardships, and the privileged lifestyles of politicians' families. The movement escalated with violence, government building vandalism, and the storming of the parliament. The protests resulted in at least 51 deaths and many injuries, and the Nepalese Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli resigned amid the unrest.
