Over 100 deputies from opposing political powers are expected to participate in the conference with the MB MP's in an attempt to pressure the government to change Article 73 constituted in 1956 The most recent changes had witnessed amendments to the constitution including a quota for women, which some saw as complementing the seats reserved for workers and fellahin (farmers), which is similar to the “social contract between all classes of people. Changes are needed
The conference will call for the amendment where the new constitution must obtain social peace for all political factions including Muslim, Copt, minors and women. It must inspire trust amongst them that their rights are guaranteed and that the state will work with them to advance their rights vis-à-vis their fellow citizens |
