CHP's slogan "Standing Up for the Will of the Nation" was launched, and during the second rally held in Beylikdüzü, the General Chairman Özgür Özel targeted the Minister of National Education, Yusuf Tekin. Özel stated, "You will imprison Turkey's most successful children, and then you will say they have an axe in their hands. They do not have an axe, but there is a pickaxe at the head of the Ministry of National Education," he said. Özel's remarks were met with a strong response from MHP leader Devlet Bahçeli.

"AGITATING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS..."

In a statement on his social media account, Bahçeli said, "The CHP Chairman and his self-serving allies, who align themselves with him, disregard the opportunities and will of democracy. They have embarked on a quest for power in the corners of the streets. Calls for uprising and rebellion have been attached to subliminal messages. After inciting university youth, it is a crime and irresponsibility to manipulate a routine and customary practice within the national education system by agitating small groups of high school students and putting them on protest vigils in front of schools; moreover, it is a lack of compassion, discernment, and conscience.

SUPPORTED MINISTER TEKİN

Our Minister of National Education is not alone; the disgusting words of the CHP Chairman have boomeranged back to him and have reflected on his character. The parents of our students must stand by their children. Every child, whether reading or not, is very valuable. Their future is the future of the Turkish nation. Turning a blind eye to the exploitation and waste of our children aged 12-24 is also risking our independence and future. Mothers and fathers should prevent their children from being wasted and ruined by not giving credence to the CHP's black campaign; they should build barriers and walls.

"A STUDENT'S PLACE IS AT SCHOOL"

CHP's street rehearsals are based on the despicable provocations of illegal leftist and marginal groups that grind our children like a millstone, ruining their futures. The unjust and unlawful protests, which are claimed to be a pursuit of democratic rights, lead to a life trapped in regrets and losses. We cannot give up on any of our children. Each one of them is the light of our eyes and the fortress of our hearts. A student's place is at school, in the classroom, in the library, in the warmth of family, in the laboratory, and in being equipped with the concepts, theories, and knowledge required by the age." he stated.
