    AUTHORITIES SHOULD BE KEPT ON TENTERHOOKS

    Opposition will say `no' to the constitutional amendments. However some
    tactical issues are still being discussed. According to Justice faction
    secretary Victor Dallakyan the faction will convoke a sitting after Robert
    Kocharyan signed the decree on condution of the referendum.

    40 days is not a short term for spreading anti-propaganda, he is convinced.
    In his opinion, taking into account the fact that 800 thousand votes `for'
    are essential for providing a quorum the opposition should first of all try
    to call the citizens to boycott the referendum or vote `against'. `The most
    important thing people have to realize is that no one can force them to go
    to the polling station and vote', he says.

    Victor Dallakyan thinks that the presence of 2 observers from each party
    will become a serious obstacle for electoral fraud.

    National Unity secretary Alexan Karapetyan also attaches importance to the
    activities of the opposition and vigilance of the election committee
    members. Contrary to Victor Dallakyan he considers that the citizens should
    take part in the referendum and say `no' to the constitutional amendments.

    In his opinion the anti-propaganda should be spread by means of direct
    communication with the people. `We should keep the authorities on
    tenterhooks to reduce the volume of fraud', A. Karapetyan noted.
