It is difficult to understand the pace of tragic events that numb the mind and brain, it is beyond explanation. Until the evening of June 1, 2001, the biggest concern of the common Nepalese was limited to how to save lives and how to survive amid the Maoist armed conflict that was spreading at that time.

Before the night had fallen, suddenly the news of royal murder, patricide, matricide and the killing of relatives in the Narayanhiti Darbar massacre spread like wildfire . The massacre was unimaginable . The flow of

news was insufficient and seemed unreliable. After not being able to find a rational reason, the intellect stops working . The official explanation does not make sense. Then some people start drowning in feelings, doubts and superstitions . Some see a native conspiracy . Some start blaming foreign manipulation.

Some start looking for the inauspicious signs given by the planets . After the Narayanhiti massacre, some religious people even started to announce that Guru Gorakhnath's blessing of power to the Shah dynasty had ended after ten generations.

Yuvraj, who was intoxicated, killed himself within a few hours and then committed suicide. After almost 25 years, the logical closure of that tragic event, which is considered unique in the history of the world, has not yet been done. But the constitution was alive . The parliament was standing . The Prime Minister was the one who got the majority of the people's representatives.

There was no incident to endanger the very existence of the country . Due to the British parliamentary belief that "even if the king dies, the king lives long" and the traditional succession system, the crown prince who was in a deep coma was declared the king and finally he died in a coma. After that, the royal system was preserved until the king, who was the beneficiary of the royal fraternal obligation, got the desire to become a ruler.

In November 2001, if the Maoists had not attacked the Ghorahi barracks of the then Royal Nepali Army and forced them to declare a state of emergency, perhaps the Shah's rule would not have ended so quickly. From September 5th to September 12th, 2025, the lightning-fast events are as mind-boggling as the seven days after June 1st, 2001.

It is difficult to express how horrific the violence, arson, looting and chaos that took place within 36 hours from Monday (September 7) to Tuesday (September 8) was . Young protesters have been killed.

Police personnel have been brutally murdered. Those stuck inside public buildings had to burn alive and give up their lives. There is nothing common people can do except pay tribute to the dozens who lost their lives due to gunshots and flames and wish the hundreds of injured people a speedy recovery.

Post-test

The imprudent and presumptuous ban imposed on 26 (un)social networks by the Nepalese government had started to become ineffective before it was implemented. The generation called Zoomers elsewhere can be called the 'TikTok Generation' in Nepal - the trendy 'Gen-G' is specifically the 'Gen-T' of Kathmandu. But even Gen-T or 'Tickers' are not a group that sticks to one pattern .

Those who live in comfort are in western countries like America and Australia . The poor are living out their lives in manual labor in West Asia and Malaysia. Some youths are wandering in Kalapahar and South India.

A relatively small but vocal group is the urban youth of Nepal, who are frustrated with the current state of their lives. are frustrated . are angry . This disaffected generation, filled with anger and resentment, feels that their dreams have been taken away . For them, social networks have become the main means of expressing their anger. For

tickers, the digital world is not just limited to TikTok. Facebook and Twitter have become like newspapers read by the older generation in their eyes . Zen-T gets his language, style, politics and music rhythm mainly from short video platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Reels and YouTube shorts.

short videos have become their primary medium—the ability to convey ideas, protest, romance, and satire within 60 seconds has become a hallmark of this generation. Discussions are done through the relatively controlled digital medium of YouTube or gaming apps.

This time around Tickers around the world chose Discord, a free communication platform originally designed for gamers that allows users to 'chat' via voice, audio or text in organized communities called 'servers'. (a) After the front door was closed due to the ban on social networks, most of the tickers who had been left behind had entered the internet through the window of the VPN service which was readily available.

maybe like 'Nepokids' and 'Politiciannepobabynepal'   Hashtags (a) have become a tool for organizing movements after they have changed from mockery to anger and passion within social media . The paradox is that even though Kanekhusi helped a bit, social media became the main medium of propaganda for the protest to remove the ban imposed on (un)social networks in the name of freedom of expression.

What happened next, it is not easy to explain . A total lunar eclipse is considered a premonition of an inauspicious event. There was a total lunar eclipse on the night of September 8. But none of the successful astrologers of Nepal, who were wondering how many times Congress Chairman Sher Bahadur Deuba would become the Prime Minister, could not predict which day they would pay their respects to him.

That's why the talk of 'Tole' astrologers is not believable ∕ Whoever is behind the scenes, (a) showing support for the movement through social media, saying that it was a free and spontaneous civil resistance, the 'Great Mayor' of Kathmandu, Balen Tickers, was seen as the main catalyst of the crowd .

may be because of that, his bright political future has started to be discussed not only within the country but also outside the country . Even after the news spread that 19 youths were killed and dozens injured on the same day, the government failed to make adequate preparations to stabilize the situation and prevent anarchy.

Even though the government (un)restricted the social media that evening, the issue had become irrelevant by that time . The Home Minister resigned, but there was no sign of stopping the movement. A curfew was imposed in and around Kathmandu, but proved ineffective in the absence of effective security arrangements to monitor and enforce compliance.

On 9 September 2025, the rampant movement had apparently gone beyond the control of Tickers and into the 'hands' of a well-coordinated group of criminal gangs, ready to wreak havoc. Government offices, parliament buildings, Singha Darbar and the Supreme Court were attacked and vandalized in major cities of the country.

When the situation was going out of control, the then Prime Minister Khadga Prasad Sharma Oli was not ready to resign even till the last moment. According to what was heard, he resigned only after losing his property and saving his life. Since he did not resign willingly, his departure is not visible from anywhere in the 'resignation'.

It would now be too early to take stock of the full damage . The revolution of 1950-51, the student revolt of 1979 leading to referendum, the mass movement of 1990, the Maoist armed conflict after 1996, the purple rhododendron revolution of 2006 or the third Madhesh rebellion of 2015 were also aimed at the change of power.

In the month of September 2015, in the brutal suppression of the third Madhesh uprising, the state power was even more brutal than now - among those who were shot in the chest and head by the police were Ganesh Chaudhary, a 76-year-old senior citizen of Jaleshwar, to Chandankumar Patel, a 4-year-old boy from Ruppandehi .

Angry Madheshis may have been less and . But his rebellious voice could not even shake the eyebrows of the Kathmandu government, instead, Sharma Oli, the behind-the-scenes operator of that suppression campaign, became a "great nationalist" and sat on the ethnic throne of the Prime Ministership within a few days .

If we take a quick overview of all the rebellions, conflicts and movements in Nepal so far, then the targeted, coordinated and ruthless attack on the state power in the 36 hours of September, 2025 seems to have never happened before. Premeditated attack on people, structures and institutions associated with the state power is probably the first in the history of Nepal, one can only hope that it will be the last.

The parliament building, which is considered to be a symbol of the collective sovereignty of Nepalis, remains in ruins. The Speaker of the House of Representatives or the Speaker of the National Assembly was deemed innocent in times of crisis.

Construction around 1908 at the height of Rana rule, reconstruction after the fire of 1973 at the peak of Shah dictatorship and Khasary power of the ethnic republic was on the rise in the period after 2015, the apex of the executive branch which was renovated with foreign aid, renovation (retrofitting) and furnishing, is standing only the skeleton covered with smoke .

Although the Supreme Court is still trying to become the center of faith of all Nepalis, how can it be said that the campaign to destroy the building along with the sentiments was not premeditated ∕ The attacks on the three organs of the state were what they were, in spite of all their shortcomings, they believed that 'freedom of expression' would be protected by setting fire to the Kantipur Media House, which has been functioning as the fourth organ for nearly 35 years. will be ? To break a story, the crowd has only impulse, not conscience. However, it is impossible to guess about the groups that set arson in almost all the Chief Minister's offices, Provincial Assembly structures, hundreds of local level offices and many police stations, along with the President's residence, the Parliament building, the Singh Darbar, the Supreme Court, the Prime Minister's residence.

National structural symbols such as Narayanhiti, Nirmal Niwas, Bhadrakali Headquarters, Kathmandu Metropolitan Office, which were carefully protected, should also be thanked to the crowd, because the Nepali Army must have protected other structures of state power.

Interim Prime Minister Sushila Karki, nominated by the invisible power, supported by Mayor Balen, elected from the discord discussion platform of the internet and appointed by the Supreme Commander of the Nepalese Army, President Ramchandra Paudel, is the most suitable person to adorn that position . She has assured that 'those who burn the Singha Durbar and the court because they are Nepali cannot be Nepalese, action will be taken against those who conspire in the movement'.

The words of a respectable person like him cannot be doubted . Remembering the repeated promises of the 'new powers' - have the Mallik Commission, Rayamazhi Commission and Lal Commission reports burned with the Singh Darbar?

Looking at the violence and destruction of the past week brings to mind the 'Three Furies' of cruel, blind, vengeful, harsh and merciless justice in Greek mythology: Alecto, the symbol of eternal wrath, Megaera, the symbol of jealousy and enmity, and Tisiphon, the symbol of murder and revenge. called

, the goddess of war and wisdom, as well as the protector and guardian of the city of Athens, the divine power Athena calmed down the anger of the angry Furies and started to protect the city and its citizens by being the 'revered goddesses' of beauty, charm and virtue .

In the current context of Nepal, who or what could be the domestic and foreign forces among the 'three furies'? Who is most likely to appear as Athena? Although there is no one who can say with certainty, it is certain that the buzz in the rumor and conspiracy market of Kathmandu has increased a lot these days.

No one has been able to prove the rumor that the facilitators who came from New Delhi saved the bones of the constitution. No one among the Ghagran intellectuals has emerged with contacts who can confirm or reject the American desire to rewrite the constitution through an interim constitution through a plebiscite and provide for a directly elected executive .

What is seen on the surface is that, for the first time in the history of Nepal, His Holiness the Dalai Lama has congratulated the interim prime minister appointed in an unconstitutional manner instead of blessing. The reality is that even though earlier China was slow to keep its throat clear, the rulers of Nepal were quick to reiterate their commitment to the 'One China Policy'. This time nothing like that has been heard .

Future Projection

On the surface, the violence, destruction and destruction that disturbs the common people is seen to be normalized within 36 hours after the earthquake . Pushpa Kamal Dahal, a surveyor of the Maoist center, has come out of his shelter to inspect the party office. While some of the Bhatbhateni superstores targeted by vandals have opened, others are slowly getting ready .

The businessmen who were attacked are showing the determination to rise again after shaking the ashes of the fire. Even after the arson, the print edition did not stop for a day, the work of the newspaper writers (news writers, correspondents, editors and journalists) and managers and labor groups of this publication is encouraging.

Television crews reading the news from the burnt and destroyed background are exposing the commitment of Kantipur. But how did all this happen? Time and again the same question comes to the mind .

All the mechanisms to warn the state authorities by collecting advance information failed ?  None of the intellectuals could assess the storm brewing in society and politics within ? That it really was a volcano that erupted and became inactive within a few days ? Actors say, to look natural on the stage, a lot of preparation has to be done . Spontaneous players also enter the field only after long preparation. 

Before trying to understand the changing reality, it has to be given a name. Tickers was a character, but the nomenclature can be useful to identify the power, limits and impact of the subsequent social, political or cultural transformations that his urban uprisings lead to.

should probably be around 2005, the columnist shouted from the Nepali Times column saying 'May Day, May Day' - 'Mixing the red of the leftists and the blue of the centrists can create a new mixed consciousness in resistance to the yellow thinking of the monarchy - and named it 'Purple Laliguras Revolution' .

Although the adjective has faded over time, the noun 'Laliguras Revolution' is sometimes still used as an alternative to Jan Andolan-2, although in the course of time all the characters of that political initiative have faded away and joined the republican incarnation of the old power . For the urban rebellion of Tickers, green and yellow color combination Haritpit Rebellion would probably be considered a suitable name .

Green is often the color of youth and growth, budding, newness and inexperience. Along with fatigue and relaxation, yellow also symbolizes Mars, light and maturity. One cannot agree with the physical methods of the Green Revolution, but looking at its political results, one has to moderate the criticism - after all, there was no other way to get rid of the "three tycoons" who have been entangling the state power in the game since 2015 .

Even the 'second generation' politicians of those three parties were not able to muster the courage to escape from the embrace of tyranny. The state and society are paying the price of liberation by losing their lives, wealth and historical heritage.

The situation after the Haritpeet rebellion seems very uncertain, the trajectory of which cannot be predicted now . This uprising may challenge the old structures in the political field and raise the demand for a change of leadership and a review of the system of public representation .

Looking at the social aspect, Tickers generation may raise the issue of gender equality and social justice, but they may try to get closer to the permanent power by opposing federalism and proportional inclusion.

The economic thinking is not clear, but the trio of unemployment, tax system and dissatisfaction with capitalism may lead to an alternative and digital economy . The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) upheaval remains to be seen.

The influence of traditional media that practices restraint and balance in the field of communication is decreasing (a) Movements that spread rapidly through social media have started to appear since the 2010s, even Nepal cannot remain free from the global assessment that may increase further in the 2020s .

The long-term strategy of immediate movements is often unclear, so most of them end up being counter-productive, leading to reactionary forces, or turning into anarchy. Even though the Haritpeet Rebellion of Nepal is signaling a profound but uncertain transformation in the overall system, it is an open question as to where its actual direction will go.
