Nepal has lifted a ban on social media platforms following mass protests and the killing of 19 people in clashes with security forces, a government minister said.
Cabinet spokesman and Minister of Communication and Information Technology Prithvi Subba Gurung said early on Tuesday that the government had rolled back the social media ban imposed last week.
Must be why they included Signal and Hamro Patro, a Nepalese app with features including news, horoscope, foreign exchange rates, podcasts and Nepali FM radio stations.
This was about information control and limiting the organization options of the people.
