In Chitwan, young protesters, led by Gen Z activist Miraj Dhungana under the “Let Us Earn a Living” campaign, demonstrated against rising fuel costs and taxes by pushing motorcycles by hand. Participants highlighted that the burden of inflation extends beyond fuel to daily essentials and transportation, accusing the government of exacerbating the situation with multiple taxes on petroleum products. The campaign demands the removal of these taxes, arguing that a significant portion of the petrol price goes towards taxes rather than the actual fuel cost, and has warned of stronger protests if their demands are ignored.
