Nepal’s recent youth led protests have left the country grappling with widespread destruction, with damages estimated at around 25 billion rupees. The demonstrations, driven by Gen Z activists demanding political reform and accountability, targeted key urban areas, including major hotels and commercial establishments.
Reports indicate that properties ranging from international hotel chains to local businesses were vandalized, resulting in significant financial losses. Authorities say the unrest, though largely peaceful in its intent, escalated in certain areas, prompting emergency responses from law enforcement.
The protests were sparked by frustration over stagnant governance and calls for greater transparency, with young citizens leading rallies across the capital and other major cities. While the uprising has captured global attention for its scale and determination, the economic toll highlights the challenges Nepal faces in balancing civic activism with public safety and property protection.
Officials are now focusing on assessing the full extent of the damage, restoring order, and initiating dialogues with youth leaders to address their grievances and prevent further escalation.
