They were injured when protesters set fire to their residence in Budhanilkantha.

Protesters set fire to homes of some of Nepal’s top political leaders in opposition to a social media ban that was lifted early Tuesday a day after deadly anti-government protests, Associated Press reported.

Local reports and videos shared on social media showed protesters attacking residences of the top political leaders in and around Kathmandu. A curfew was imposed in the capital and other cities, and schools in Kathmandu were closed.

The houses set on fire included those of Sher Bahadur Deuba, leader of the largest party Nepali Congress, President Ram Chandra Poudel, Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak and leader of the Communist party of Nepal Maoist Pushpa Kamal Dahal. A private school owned by Deuba’s wife Arzu Deuba Rana, who is the current foreign minister, was also set on fire, according to Associated Press.

The mass protest and attack on parliament Monday began as opposition to the ban on social media platforms but were fueled by growing frustration and dissatisfaction against the political parties among the people who blame them for corruption.

Who doesn’t love a good dessert after a meal? There’s something so immensely satisfying about tucking into a gooey cake or soft ice cream after a hearty lunch or dinner. We really believe it helps your tummy settle and uplifts your mood. Here are three places we think you shouldn’t miss out on if you are looking for something sweet to make you or your friends happy.

Lakuri Cafe

They make the most delicious cakes and scones. Take our word for it, you won’t be disappointed. Located in Baluwatar, Lakuri Cafe baked treats are perfect for any occasion. We recommend their soft breads and carrot cake. Their cupcakes too are a delight. The good thing about the items here is that they aren’t too sweet but hit just the right notes.

Cinnabon 

Cinnabon is a renowned bakery brand that has outlets in over 50 countries. Now, you can try their delicious cakes and drinks at Sanepa in Lalitpur. Mostly known for their rich cinnamon rolls, Cinnabon’s drinks are to die for as well. The buns are slightly on the sweeter side so you might want to share the treat with a friend or your partner.

Donut Drool

Donuts make for a great breakfast, snack, or dessert. They are the quintessential sweet treat that no one can turn away from. Though there are many places that make good donuts (Like Herman Helmers on Saturday and The Workshop Eatery), we recommend Donut Drool for the variety and affordable prices.
