Kathmandu –
Nepal rolled back its social media ban on Tuesday, a day after at least 19 people were killed in protests demanding that the government lift its restrictions and tackle corruption.
All major social media apps were working, a reporter in Kathmandu said, as the government ordered a probe into the violence that saw police launch a deadly crackdown on protesters.
Several social media sites — including Facebook, YouTube and X — were blocked on Friday in the Himalayan nation of 30 million people, after the government blocked 26 unregistered platforms.
