It underscored the legislature’s role in translating the will and aspirations of the people into law, building institutions and accompanying the country through every stage of its development.

The programme contributed to educating younger generations about their responsibility to preserve and build on the achievements of the revolution, while fostering a spirit of enthusiasm and patriotic emulation and encouraging officials, Party members and people from all walks of life to harness the strength of great national unity to join hands in building and firmly safeguarding the nation.
