The government has decided to hold a referendum on the day of the upcoming 13th National Assembly elections to receive public opinion on the reform proposals recommended by the National Consensus Commission. A law will have to be formulated to hold this referendum. At that time, the government said that final approval would be given in the form of a Referendum Ordinance within a few working days. A special meeting of the Advisory Council is being held in this regard today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
