Amid the ongoing protests and PM K.P. Sharma Oli’s resignation, Nepal’s condition has worsened as Nepal’s PresidentRam Chandra Paudel also tendered his resignation.
The twin resignations come in the wake of violent nationwide protests against corruption and a controversial social media ban, which has since been withdrawn.
At least 19 people have lost their lives in the unrest, described as one of the largest youth-led agitations in the country’s recent history.
Paudel’s resignation signals a vacuum at the highest levels of Nepal’s leadership, leaving the country grappling with both political instability and mounting security concerns.
Observers warn that Nepal now faces an uncertain road ahead, with growing calls for systemic reforms to address the grievances fueling the protests.
