New coalition forms to challenge constitutional changes

A broad-based alliance named the People's Coalition launched on Friday to oppose the newly enacted Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3. The movement unites prominent church groups, labor unions, and civic organizations in a coordinated front against the ruling party's legislative agenda. Coalition leaders declared that the amendments dismantle the core tenets of the national constitution rather than improving them. Political analysts suggest that the alliance represents the most unified civic opposition to the government in recent years. The coalition faces the immediate challenge of mobilizing public resistance against a consolidated legislative majority.
