Nepal Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli stepped down on Tuesday, September 9, after days of violent anti-corruption protests that left at least 19 dead and more than 100 injured. Demonstrators defied an indefinite curfew, clashing with police and setting fire to the homes of ministers in Lalitpur, with some officials evacuated by military helicopters.

Oli’s resignation comes after his government lifted a controversial social media ban that sparked unrest, plunging the Himalayan nation into fresh political uncertainty. The turmoil is the worst in decades, adding to Nepal’s long struggle with instability since the abolition of its monarchy in 2008.
