Earlier last week, Gen-Z demonstrations had spread across the Kathmandu Valley and other parts of the country. The protests turned violent, leading CPN-UML Chairperson KP Sharma Oli to resign from the post of Prime Minister.
Following his resignation, President Ram Chandra Paudel appointed former Chief Justice Sushila Karki as the Prime Minister of the interim government last Friday.
