Global Gen Z Protests Influence Political Changes and Education Reforms
Gen Z-led protests have emerged globally, addressing issues like corruption, education reforms, and governance. In Nepal, youth protests contributed to the resignation of Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and led to a youth-backed party's electoral victory. In India, nationwide student protests against exam paper leaks pressured Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to resign. These movements utilized social media for mobilization and sparked discussions on systemic reforms. The Hindu highlights the uniqueness of India's student protests as a potential political challenge to the Modi government, distinct from previous movements.
