Violent Protests Force Nepal PM to Resign After Social Media Ban Uproar

Protestors criticized both corruption and nepotism, and things got violent: dozens killed, over a thousand injured. Prime Minister K. P. Sharma Oli stepped down amid demands for accountability and big changes. The chaos included parliament buildings being set on fire and demands for an interim government. What’s next: restoring social media access and figuring out how to rebuild trust with a shaken public.
