Nepal’s Parliament building, Supreme Court, and residences of several senior leaders were set ablaze on Tuesday as anti-government protests spiralled out of control, minutes after Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli resigned.

Visuals shared by news agency PTI confirmed the fire at the Supreme Court, while the storming and burning of Parliament was reported by television channels and attested to by multiple reporters on the ground.

Oli stepped down shortly after hundreds of demonstrators entered his office shouting anti-government slogans.

Reports also suggested he is preparing to flee Nepal, with speculation of a possible trip to Dubai under the pretext of medical treatment. ET Online could not independently verify these claims.

How unfortunate. People have no restraint anymore. Destruction is the only thing on their mind because they lack the intellect to speak and work things out. I am not referring to only Nepal.

Effect of video games and social media. Don't like something? Burn it down.
