2025 Nepalese Gen Z protests

In September 2025, large-scale anti-corruption protests and demonstrations took place all across Nepal, predominantly organized by Generation Z students and young citizens. Known as "the Gen Z protests", they began parallel to a nationwide ban on numerous social media platforms including YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, and WhatsApp, and were motivated by the public's frustration with corruption and display of wealth by government officials and their families, as well as allegations of mismanagement of public funds.
