The deputy linked social media criticism to the position of the executive branch
Kunduzbek Sulaymanov, a deputy of the Jogorku Kenesh, responded to the criticism that erupted on social media, where he was accused of populism due to his statements against extending the training period for obtaining a driver's license to 10 months.
At a parliamentary meeting, he noted that such accusations are not random and, in his opinion, are related to the position of the executive branch, which plans to implement new requirements.
Sulaymanov emphasized that he voices not only his own opinion but also the views of the public.
“When we speak, we represent the interests of hundreds of our voters. The state should take into account the dissatisfaction of the population and draw appropriate conclusions,” the deputy stressed.
He also reminded that he had previously spoken out against extending the training period to 10 months and proposed an alternative option: to allow the theoretical exam to be taken after three months. If the trainee is not ready, they can continue their training, and if they pass, they can obtain their license.
Sulaymanov noted that the increase in the number of road accidents is indeed alarming; however, tightening requirements should not lead to increased public discontent. According to him, almost every family has someone who has been affected by accidents, and this issue concerns everyone.
Additionally, the deputy called for preventing conflict between the Jogorku Kenesh and the cabinet of ministers, suggesting that this issue be discussed in a government hour format.
In conclusion, he noted that his goal is not to “score points” but to raise issues representing the interests of society.
