Condition of the Injured
Doctor Badri Risal noted that 58 injured individuals are in the National Trauma Center, many of them in serious condition. They have sustained head and chest injuries.
Reasons for the Protests
Protests in Nepal erupted due to the government's decision to block social media. The protesters demand an end to this ban and an end to impunity for corruption.
“Stop the social media ban, stop the corruption, not social media,” the demonstrators chanted. Their actions have been characterized as a protest of Generation Z.
Information from the Government
According to official government data, some social media platforms have received demands to register their companies in Nepal, but some have ignored this. Those who managed to register can continue their activities.
