Nepalis lit candles outside the fire-damaged parliament on Thursday, marking one month since anti-corruption protests toppled the government, with fresh vows to keep up pressure ahead of elections.

The vigil in Kathmandu, attended by dozens – many of whom were participants in the demonstrations – honoured those killed during the protests.

“We are now in the second phase of the movement, until the election,” said protester Yujan Rajbhandari.

“We will not stop… The issues we raised about corruption and good governance are the priority.”
