In this episode of The Diplomat’s Asia Geopolitics podcast hosts Ankit Panda (@nktpnd) and Katie Putz (@LadyPutz) discuss the recent protests in Nepal, which led to the resignation of the prime minister, in the context of other protest-driven political change in South Asia. We explore the underlying causes of the protests, including youth frustration, economic challenges, and the role of social media as both a political and economic tool; the geopolitical implications for India and China, Nepal’s neighbors; as well as the potential for positive political transition in Nepal and the influence of small states in the broader geopolitical landscape.
