Nepal protest is primarily against corruption and misgovernance. Social media ban was just the tipping point.
Why is Indian Godi media misleading people by not showing the reality?
UNICEF is deeply alarmed by reports of violence against children during today’s protests in Nepal. The use of force against children is unacceptable and must stop immediately. #ForEveryChild#NotATarget
#Nepal: We are shocked by the killings and injury of protesters today and urge a prompt and transparent investigation.
We have received several deeply worrying allegations of unnecessary or disproportionate use of force by security forces during protests organized by youth groups demonstrating against corruption and the recent Government ban on social media platforms.
We call on the authorities to respect and ensure the rights of peaceful assembly and freedom of expression.
All security forces must comply with the basic principles on the use of force and firearms by law enforcement officials.
Nepal enjoys a lively democracy and active civic space, and dialogue is the best means to address young people’s concerns. ��We urge reconsideration of measures to regulate social media to ensure they comply with Nepal’s human rights obligations.
