Nepal's protests against the government turned violent across the Himalayan nation on Tuesday with officials confirming that at least 19 people have been killed and hundreds more wounded, Reuters reported.
Demonstrators, mainly young people from Generation Z, torched parliament and the homes of government officials, stormed prisons and forced the resignation of Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli in the nation's capital of Kathmandu.
Reports from local media said protesters allegedly set the home of former Prime Minister Jhala Nath Khanal on fire with his wife, Ravi Laxmi Chitrakar, inside the Dallu residence.
Prime Minister Jhala Nath Khanal is ousted, while parliament is on fire. It started from Nepali government banning social media site Facebook, X, and YouTube. It is also general discontent with life. Among them, corruption.
