Clashes between protesters and the police, nineteen dead, the parliament building on fire, the resignation of the government, tens of thousands of young Nepalis on the streets. What caused the outburst of anger of "generation Z" in Nepal and why did Aleksandar Vuฤiฤ recognize himself in it
The announcement of the shutdown of social networks that would not adhere to state censorship and information flow control was just an excuse to Dissatisfaction explodes young Nepalese. A reckless move, made by "old men" in power who did not know how to assess what would happen if they tried to take away TikTok, Instagram or Vocap from young people. The rationale sounds equally alien: to prevent the spread of cybercrime and false information.
This was the reason for the outburst of anger of visibly young people, "Generation Z", people born between 1995 and 2010, adults with smartphones and social networks. The film broke, they saw red in front of their eyes.
The cause, however, is much deeper and is summed up by one slogan on the streets of Kathmandu: "Youth against corruption." According to Transparency International, Nepal is one of the most corrupt Asian countries.
Online campaign against "nepo-babies"
The riots were preceded by an online campaign against "nepo-babies", a coin coined in Hollywood from the terms "nepotism" and "baby", which refers to children who get good roles and success thanks to famous parents in the film industry, and not, at least not only, by their own talent and work.
Dissatisfied young Nepalis used this hashtag on the X platform and on TikTok to spread the question: how do ministers' children finance their luxurious lifestyles, when Nepali politicians don't earn much, at least not officially.
Many prominent politicians are suspected of being corrupt, among others in that group is former Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, who allegedly changed the purpose of a tea plantation for personal enrichment, which is against the guidelines of the Supreme Court. Another example is the embezzlement of over 70 million dollars during the construction of the Pokhara airport, which was found by a parliamentary investigative commission.
Many Nepalis feel that the rich in power are getting richer, while their lives are very difficult. About seven percent of the population sought work in India or Malaysia.
According to World Bank data, almost 27 percent of Nepal's GDP is made up of remittances from abroad by Nepali guest workers to their families, German "Spiegel" reports.

Nepal's uprising against government corruption
byu/CMao1986 inTheDeprogram
Recognition of Serbian authority
The Serbian regime's "Politika" recognized in all this "an identical choreography as in Serbia", and above all a bloody fist.
Aleksandar Vuฤiฤ also recognized himself, and declared that the scenery in Nepal, 6.000 kilometers away, "cannot be used in Serbia". That's it - a colored revolution and all of it is financed by some dark, Western, of course, power centers.
"Like a frog when it sees a horse being shod, then it would also put a horseshoe on itself. They saw Nepal today and the riots in Kathmandu, up the buildings, so I guess they are happy that the wife of the former prime minister was killed. Imagine those heroic protesters who managed to kill a woman in her house, while she was probably washing the dishes or doing something ordinary. 'Well, we want the same thing here', they say, so they are so brave. Like little children. There is nothing like that. And it should have been clear to them a long time ago that there is none of that," said Vuฤiฤ, quoted by "Politika".
He also pointed out that it is difficult to have a conversation with those who, as he said, "have a closed flow of everything healthy and reasonable in their brains, and serve exclusively private criminal interests."
He was referring to students, pupils, professors, teachers, deans, rectors, lawyers, some judges and prosecutors, that is - "blockaders-terrorists".
And in Serbia, Generation Z is carrying the current rebellion against the corrupt government of Aleksandar Vuฤiฤ on their shoulders.
Resetting the political system
After the abolition of the monarchy in 2008, no government in Nepal has served a full term. And Oli (73), who has now resigned, became prime minister in July. He is one of the three politicians who are constantly in power. First of all, young Nepalis are fed up with the same faces. Demonstrators demand a reset of the political system, a decisive fight against corruption and nepotism and equal opportunities for all.
By all accounts, the country is entering a period of power vacuum and political instability.
