Nepal’s new Prime Minister Sushila Karki has declared that those killed in the recent Gen Z protests will be honoured as martyrs. “Those killed in the crackdown on the Gen Z Revolution will be declared martyrs. Their families will receive financial aid of Rs 10 lakh, and assistance will also be extended to the injured,” Karki said in her first national address. The protests, sparked by a social media ban, soon grew into a movement against corruption and unemployment, leaving over 70 dead and 1,300 injured. Karki urged unity, saying, “We will not give up. We will work to restore our nation.” (PC: Reuters)
