Indian tourist Upastha Gill, in Nepal for a volleyball tournament, said her hotel in Pokhara was set on fire and she barely escaped a mob attack.
Amid Gen Z protests against corruption, which have left over 20 dead and forced PM KP Sharma Oli to resign, Gill appealed to the Indian embassy for evacuation, saying even tourists were being targeted.
With airports shut and flights suspended, some stranded Indians are being evacuated through the India-Nepal border at Sonauli, Uttar Pradesh.
