    ARMENIAN PARLIAMENT REJECTS AMENDMENTS TO LAW ON HOLIDAYS AND COMMEMORATION DAYS

    April 6, 2010 - 13:33 AMT 08:33 GMT

    Discussion of the draft law submitted by the ARF Dashnaktsutyun
    parliamentary group on announcing April 24 a Day of Fatherland's
    Demands is postponed for 30 days.

    A PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent in the parliament reported that
    although the project got a negative inference from the Standing
    Committee on Education, Science and Youth Affairs, the ARFD insists
    on including the draft law in the spring session agenda.

    Head of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) parliamentary group
    Galust Sahakyan noted during the debates that April 24 is already
    marked by the Armenian people as a day of commemoration and grief
    and there is no need to attach another name to it.

    Meanwhile, ARF Dashnaktsutyun representative Artyusha Shahbazyan
    stated that the RPA "has forgotten the values professed by Garegin
    Nzhdeh that are fixed in the party's program."
