Kathmandu: A faction of the Gen-G movement has announced a fresh round of protests against the Sushila Karki-led government, accusing it of failing to uphold the spirit and demands of the movement even after completing 100 days in office.

The group led by Gen-G activist Miraj Dhungana said it would begin demonstrations from today, with a protest scheduled at Maitighar from 11:00 am. Dhungana stated that the government formed on the strength of the Gen-G movement has not delivered on its commitments and has instead sidelined the core issues raised by young protesters.

According to Dhungana, several Gen-G groups have decided to resume protests on the day marking the government’s 100 days in office, alleging that the administration has “appropriated” the movement’s agenda without implementing meaningful reforms. He said the current leadership has failed to reflect the sentiments expressed during the protests of Bhadra 23 and 24 and is unable to lead the aspirations of the younger generation.

Announcing what he termed a “United Gen-G Movement,” Dhungana warned that unresolved political, governance and accountability issues could lead to deeper instability. He stressed that the movement is not limited to elections alone but is focused on systemic reform, good governance and changes in state conduct. He added that holding elections without addressing these concerns would not ensure lasting stability.

Dhungana also levelled allegations of corruption, nepotism and favoritism against the government, claiming that promised actions against corruption have not materialized. He said the movement would remain peaceful and maintained that it is not being influenced by any external forces.

Recalling earlier protests, Dhungana noted that he was among the Gen-G leaders who had obtained official permission for demonstrations in Kathmandu in Bhadra. He said that when those protests turned violent due to alleged infiltration, organizers had urged participants to disperse.

The Gen-G movement had emerged as a significant youth-led protest calling for accountability, reform and good governance, and its renewed mobilization signals growing dissatisfaction among sections of its supporters with the current political leadership.
