Nepal lawmaker tells PM Balen to 'take off dark glasses' as Gen-Z protests reignite
As a new wave of Gen-Z demonstrations sweeps across Nepal, legislators are calling for the resignation of Prime Minister Balen Shah, who assumed office following the fatal unrest seen last year. Lawmaker Basana Thapa addressed the leader, stating, "Prime Minister, it's time to take off the dark glasses." The latest demonstrations were sparked by the death of a 25-year-old ride-sharing driver, who died by self-immolation following a dispute with the Kathmandu Metropolitan Police.
