Home Minister Lekhak Resigns Citing Moral Responsibility

Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak tendered his resignation on Monday evening, citing moral responsibility following the violent escalation of the Gen Z protest, which has so far claimed 19 lives.

Lekhak acknowledged the need for accountability and submitted his resignation during a cabinet meeting, handing it over to Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli.

The movement, which had gained momentum in recent weeks, turned deadly on Monday, leading to significant loss of life and property.
