Kathmandu, Sept 16 .<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Kathmandu<\/strong> \u2013 The Para Athletics Association Nepal, together with rights-based organizations representing persons with disabilities across the country, organized a candlelight tribute program<\/strong> in honor of the youths who lost their lives during recent demonstrations led by the Zen Z<\/em> movement. The event was held on Sunday evening at Bhanimandal, Lalitpur, with the aim of paying respect to the martyrs and voicing solidarity against corruption and misgovernance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remembering the Fallen of the Zen Z Movement<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The peaceful protests spearheaded by the Zen Z<\/em> group were met with severe crackdowns, resulting in the deaths of more than 37 students. This tragedy shocked the entire nation. Speaking at the program, Para Athletics Association Nepal President Om Nath Shivakoti<\/strong> emphasized that future generations should not have to endure such sacrifices, expressing hope that the new Prime Minister would take constructive steps to address the crisis and honor the sacrifices made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
