Gen-ji rebellion in Nepal again! ‘Suicide’ of three youths demanding Prime Minister Balendra’s resignation

After a massive public outcry, toppling the elected government, the hope was that corruption, nepotism would be eradicated forever and a new Nepal would emerge. Unemployment will rise. However, before the new government had passed a year, India’s neighbors again erupted in rebellion. Nepal’s Zen-G has taken a new path against Balendra Shah’s government. In the last 3 days, 3 youths have poured petrol on their bodies and set them on fire in public streets demanding Balendra’s resignation. 2 of whom died while undergoing treatment. A third youth is being treated for serious injuries.

Balendra Shah was the main face of Nepal’s Gen-G movement. He is currently the Prime Minister of the country. However, he has failed to fulfill the hope that he came to power by instilling hope in the hearts of the countrymen, complains of youth society. Gen-G Nepal organizations have alleged that Prime Minister Shah is running an anti-people and dictatorial regime. According to the demands of the organization, this government has failed to take specific steps in the budget and policies to increase the employment and income of the youth of the country. In protest, the youth there has started a new rebellion.

For the past few days, the youth of Nepal has started protesting on the streets of Kathmandu. Three young men set themselves on fire three days in a row.

For the past few days, the youth of Nepal has started protesting on the streets of Kathmandu. Three young men set themselves on fire three days in a row. Out of which 2 people have died. Another person is under treatment for injuries. The government is increasingly worried about the direction in which the situation is moving. In this situation, the opposition party Nepali Congress has targeted the Balendra government by standing by the youth society. It has been claimed that this suicide is due to the failure of the state. It is to be noted that before the Genji rebellion took a terrible shape in Nepal last year, there was a similar suicide in 2023 in protest against the government. The then mayor of Kathmandu Balendra Shah became vocal against the government after the death of a young man named Prem Acharya. This time he himself is under criticism.

It is to be noted that last year, Balendra Shah was one of the architects of the Gen-G rebellion and the fall of the former KP Sharma Oli government in Nepal. In September last year, his song left a response among the youth. Oli’s government has been rocked by public outcry against social media bans, unemployment, corruption and ailing economy. After overthrowing the government, elections were held again on March 5 in Nepal. Balendra Shah won this election by defeating Oli. He also became the Prime Minister of the country in just 35 years. However, before a year has passed, Balendra himself is in the face of public anger.
