GenZ Activist and ProloPa Candidate Bikash Rasaili on Post-Protest Politics and Elections

Kathmandu. The GenZ movement was not just a small spark; it was a massive explosion of frustration that had been simmering in Nepali society for decades. The House of Representatives election is taking place on Falgun 21. The election is happening on the strength of the GenZ movement that occurred on Bhadra 23 and 24.
