Kathmandu faces unrest after Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli fled two days ago. Government collapse leaves Nepal leaderless. Gen Z protesters hit streets, split over future.
Meetings with army yield no decisions. Divisions grow among demonstrators. They claim revolution slips away to opportunists. Corruption-free government chances fade.
Protesters accuse outsiders of hijacking movement. They push for interim setup, parliament dissolution. Former Chief Justice Sushila Karki tops many lists. “We need interim government now,” one protester says. “Sushila fought corruption always. She fits best. Parliament must dissolve. Law and order come next.”
Others favor Kathmandu’s independent mayor Balendra Shah. “Balendra makes good decisions,” supporter notes. “He works for people. No better leader before.” Engineer Kulman Ghising, 54, gains traction too. He solved power crises as electricity authority head. Journalist Ravi Lamichhane appears in discussions.
Whoever leads must build corruption-free Nepal, protesters warn. Failure sparks fresh unrest. Former President Ram Chandra Paudel vows efforts for democracy, peace.
