flag Nepal's 2026 election, sparked by youth protests against corruption, failed to upend elite power despite new transparency measures.

flag On March 5, 2026, Nepal holds a pivotal parliamentary election following a youth-led uprising that overthrew a government accused of corruption and authoritarianism, with nearly 8.9 million voters choosing from 275 seats. flag The election, advanced by former Chief Justice Sushila Karki, centers on anti-corruption reforms, including AI monitoring and asset disclosures, though public skepticism remains high due to weak enforcement and limited youth representation. flag Despite new transparency rules, institutional power remains concentrated among elites, suggesting the protests shook but did not fundamentally transform the political system.
