At about 7.15am on September 6, hours after Nepal’s ban on 26 social media platforms came into force, an official jeep carrying Koshi province minister Ram Bahadur Magar struck 11-year-old Usha Magar Sunuwar outside Harisiddhi Secondary School in Lalitpur.CCTV footage showed her flung onto the roadside as the vehicle drove away. She survived with injuries, but the image of a child abandoned by a govt convoy ricocheted across phones and set off a wave of outrage.
