Part II of the new draft Constitution has been significantly updated and renamed “Fundamental Rights, Freedoms and Duties”. Such a structure will clarify the interrelationship of rights and duties and allow them to be considered as a single legal system. Thus, a comprehensive model is formed in which the rights of a citizen and his responsibility to the state are considered simultaneously. Clarity on citizenship issues According to the draft, dual or multiple citizenship is not allowed. Acquiring citizenship of another state is a basis for terminating citizenship of Kazakhstan. This norm enhances legal clarity and clarifies the legal relationship between a citizen and the state. Guarantee of state responsibility It is established that everyone has the right to recover from the state the damage caused by the unlawful actions of state bodies or their officials. This provision strengthens the mechanisms for protecting the rights of citizens by clarifying the responsibility of state authorities at the constitutional level. Constitutional guarantees of fundamental rights The right to life is defined as an inalienable and inalienable right. It is clearly stated that no one has the right to take human life arbitrarily. Guarantees of personal freedom and inviolability will be strengthened. The presumption of innocence will be enshrined in the section on fundamental rights and defined as a mandatory constitutional standard for all state bodies. Privacy and digital security The norms of inviolability of privacy will be expanded. The protection of personal data, bank secrecy, correspondence and telephone conversations, including digital communications, will be enshrined at the constitutional level. This is aimed at ensuring the legal protection of citizens in an era of rapid digitalization. Social and civil rights The inviolability of honor and dignity will be clearly guaranteed. Labor rights will be brought into line with international standards, and the state's duty to create conditions for employment will be clarified. It establishes that housing is inviolable and can only be deprived of it based on a court decision. This is aimed at increasing the level of social protection of citizens. Marriage is constitutionally recognized as a voluntary and equal union of a man and a woman, registered by the state in accordance with the law. The secular nature of the education system is clearly defined, and the secular principle of the state is strengthened. Environmental responsibility and political demands The duty of citizens to preserve nature and take care of natural resources is enshrined at the constitutional level. This is aimed at establishing environmental responsibility as a public value. The requirements for the right to vote will also be clarified: persons who have been declared incompetent, have an outstanding criminal record, or have committed corruption offenses cannot be elected. This will contribute to increasing the transparency and credibility of the political system. Changes aimed at strengthening the rule of law The updates in Part II not only clarify human rights, but also strengthen the guarantees for their protection and define the duties of every citizen to society. The proposed norms are a systematic step aimed at deepening the principles of the rule of law and ensuring social stability.

Part III of the new draft Constitution includes a number of important changes that define the powers of the President and his institution. The proposed amendments are aimed at strengthening the balance between the branches of state power, increasing the transparency and efficiency of the governance system. Requirements for the presidency have been clarified According to the draft, the requirements for a presidential candidate are clearly established. The candidate must be a native of the Republic of Kazakhstan, be at least forty years old, fluent in the state language, and have resided in the country for the past 15 years. In addition, higher education and at least 5 years of work experience in public service or an elected position are considered. These requirements are aimed at ensuring the participation of experienced and professional individuals in the governance of the country. The date of the snap election has been determined. In the event of an early termination of the President's term, elections shall be held no later than two months later. This provision ensures a legal and timely transition of power and allows for the consolidation of the legitimacy of the future leader. Balance in appointment procedures According to the new draft, the President can appoint officials of key state bodies only with the consent of the Kurultai. This is aimed at maintaining institutional balance and preventing unilateral dominance in the decision-making process. If the Kurultai does not agree to two consecutive appointments, the possibility of its dissolution for the purpose of renewing its composition will be considered. Such a norm will prevent political deadlock and ensure the uninterrupted functioning of state bodies. The institution of the Vice President will be introduced The project envisages the introduction of the Vice-President institution. The Vice-President is appointed by the President with the consent of the Kurultai. He/She is responsible for representing the country at the international level and ensuring coordination between state bodies. In addition, the Vice-President is required not to be a member of a political party. This requirement is aimed at ensuring political neutrality and strengthening the principles of fair competition. Procedure for resignation and early termination of authority The voluntary resignation of the President is processed through the Constitutional Court. In the event of premature termination of the term of office, the succession of powers is clearly regulated: first, the powers are transferred to the Vice-President, and if he is unable to do so, to the Chairman of the Constituent Assembly, and then to the Prime Minister. Early elections are held within two months after the decision of the Constituent Assembly. A step towards institutional stability The proposed changes in Part III are aimed at clarifying the legal status of the institution of the President and strengthening the balance between the branches of power. These amendments will increase the transparency of the governance system and clarify the mutual accountability of state bodies. Overall, the new norms lay the foundation for strengthening accountability and efficiency to society while maintaining the stability of power.

The event brought together more than 10 thousand people and became one of the first large public platforms within the framework of the work of the National Coalition "For a Just and Progressive People's Constitution of Kazakhstan!" During the concert, an appeal was made to Kazakhstanis to participate in the upcoming referendum and express their position on the draft New Constitution. As Head of State Kassym-Jomart Tokayev noted, the constitutional changes are a continuation of the country's systematic political modernization. According to him, the main goal of the reforms is to strengthen the principles of justice and the rule of law, strengthen the role of representative institutions, and form a more balanced model of interaction between the branches of power. The President also noted that it is important to openly discuss the essence of the proposed changes and widely inform the population. The event took place in the format of a public cultural event, which brought together residents and guests of the capital.

According to Akerke Iskanderova, the draft New Constitution will expand the scope of citizen participation and create conditions for the active involvement of young people in public processes. "The ultimate goal of the proposed changes is to strengthen and protect our independence and entrust a strong state to the new generation.

We need a new Constitution so that the future of our children and youth is bright and secure," said Aikerim Yesenali.

The situation on the banks of the Badam River is stable. There is no threat of flooding. To reduce the risk of flooding on the river, which often rises in the spring, 5.3 kilometers of embankment were reinforced last year and were fully completed in December. 2.7 billion tenge was allocated for this work. According to the Urban Environment Development Department, the riverbed near the settlements of Igilik, Zhanatalap, and Kokbulak has been regulated and the banks have been concreted. However, unknown individuals have illegally excavated stones from the riverbed, damaging the hydraulic engineering structure. — As a result of illegal actions, about 40 meters of the concrete dam were damaged. Law enforcement agencies are currently investigating the perpetrators, — said the head of the department, Abulkhair Ongar. According to experts, the damaged part will be restored at the expense of the contractor company. The project has a warranty period of 7 years.
