Nepal continues to remain tense as the Nepalese Army extends curfew and restrictions in Kathmandu Valley, including Kathmandu, Lalitpur, and Bhaktapur, following ongoing political unrest and widespread protests. While essential services have been permitted to operate, authorities have provided residents with limited time windows to buy basic necessities. The protests, which began on September 8, have expanded to several major cities, leading security forces to intensify measures aimed at maintaining order. With uncertainty surrounding the political climate and growing concerns over public safety, attention is now focused on how the government will respond to the escalating situation.
