Kulman Ghising: The Engineer Who Lit Up Nepal and Captured Gen Z’s Trust

In a country once plagued by daily power outages that stretched up to 18 hours, one man led a quiet revolution. Kulman Ghising , an electrical engineer educated in India, stepped in as the Managing Director of Nepal Electricity Authority in 2016 and swiftly turned the tide. Within months, the dark evenings that had become a part of Nepali life started fading. Ghising didn’t just restore electricity; he restored public faith in the possibility of good governance. Today, in a time of rising youth unrest and political turmoil, his name is being put forward by Gen Z activists as a fresh, capable face for the future of Nepal.
