NEW DELHI: The ministry of external affairs on Tuesday called for exercising "restraint" in the ongoing GenZ protests in Nepal . It issued an advisory for Indians living there and advised them to "exercise caution and adhere to the steps and guidelines issued by the Nepali authorities."
"We have also taken note that authorities have imposed curfew in Kathmandu and several other cities of Nepal. Indian nationals in Nepal are advised to exercise caution and adhere to the steps and guidelines issued by the Nepali authorities," MEA said in a statement.
"As a close friend and neighbour, we hope that all concerned will excercise restraint and address any issues through peaceful means and dialogue," it said.
"We are closely monitoring the developments in Nepal since yesterday and are deeply saddened by the loss of many young lives. Our thoughts and prayers are with families of deceased. We also wish speedy recovery for those who were injured," it added.
