Who is accountable for teacher–student relationships?

KU alumna says she was groomed & then sued for defamation after speaking up. Kathmandu District Court ruled the claim could not be proven.

This story examines power, consent, retaliation & what safer campuses could look like

[Nepali Times @NepaliTimes]

Adult grooming is often unrecognised because it is subtle. It occurs between people with unequal power, like a faculty and students. This compromises on genuine consent because of traditional respect for teachers in Nepal and violates ethics of academia.

The costs of “development” in Nepal have repeatedly been borne by marginalized communities.

From Kathmandu’s road expansion to Solukhumbu hydropower, the Sunkoshi-Tamakoshi river basin,
the Tamakoshi-Kathmandu transmission line, and the Tanahu Hydropower Project.

The Nepali influencers that Abhinav Shahi, an 18-year-old, followed on Instagram, flooded his feed with content urging people to join the “Gen Z” protest against corruption on September 8 in Kathmandu, Nepal’s capital. The government’s latest heavy-handed social media ban sparked the youth’s rage; it felt like a tipping point.

Female students of Gopal Kalapremi say he touched them inappropriately, male students say they witnessed his abuse and harassment. Students struggled to recognise the abuse when it occurred, and the lack of reporting systems left them to cope on their own.
