Nepal’s politics has been shaken after former Prime Minister K. P. Sharma Oli was arrested. This happened just a few days after a new government led by Balen Shah came to power. Because the arrest came so soon after the change in government, it has increased political tension and started a big debate across the country.
Oli is reportedly being detained for his alleged role in last year's "Gen-Z" protests, which were marked by widespread violence and resulted in the deaths of over 70 people. The movement began as an anti-corruption movement but quickly escalated into a violent one.
