Nepal Starts Clearing Charred Vehicles, Government Buildings As Damage Assessment Continues
Officials lift a burnt vehicle using a crane from the premises of Singhadurbar, the administrative capital of Nepal, which was set on fire during last week's Gen-Z protest in Kathmandu, Nepal, on September 19, 2025. In the aftermath of the Gen-Z protests, insurance claims continue to rise, with preliminary claims standing at 20.70 billion, reflecting the scale of destruction during the September 8 and 9 agitations. According to records with the Nepal Insurance Authority (NIA), a total of 1,984 claims are filed by Thursday, almost all linked to private businesses and properties. With public structures uninsured, companies are spared from additional exposure except for government vehicles under third-party liability coverage. Some insurers face unprecedented pressure.
