Nepal army chief calls for talks with protesters
Nepal’s army chief said that there has been a huge loss of life and property in the protests. He called on the protesters to show restraint in this situation. He said, “It is the responsibility of all of us to maintain law and order, ensure national unity and ensure that there is no loss of life and property.” The army chief called on everyone to normalize tensions, describing the current situation in Nepal as “abnormal.” He also expressed deep condolences to those killed during the protests.
Thousands of Nepalese people took to the streets across the country, including the capital Kathmandu, on Monday to protest against the imposition of bans on several social media platforms and against government corruption and mismanagement.
The government took a tough stance in suppressing the protests. Shots were fired at the protesters. Nineteen people were killed in clashes with law enforcement and hundreds more were injured. The situation in the country quickly spiraled out of control.
