Gen Z protesters on Tuesday targeted the residences of political leaders and ministers in Kathmandu Valley and other districts, hurling stones and setting property on fire.

Protesters set fire to the house of Minister for Communication and Information Technology Prithvi Subba Gurung in Lalitpur. They also pelted stones at the Bhaisepati residence of Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Bishnu Paudel. The house of former home minister Ramesh Lekhak, who resigned from the post on Monday, was attacked as well.

The Bhaisepati-based residence of Nepal Rastra Bank Governor Biswo Paudel was also stoned. Demonstrators reached the Budhanilkantha-based house of former prime minister and Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba, but were stopped before they could attack.

Also, protesters hurled stones at the Khumaltar residence of the CPN (Maoist Centre) chair and the main opposition leader, Pushpa Kamal Dahal.

According to our local correspondents, demonstrators have targeted residences of chief ministers, provincial ministers and other leaders in various districts despite local administrations stepping up security measures to take the situation under control.
