Lawmakers in Kyrgyzstan have voted against the proposal to make March 24 a new annual public holiday, claiming that an "objective assessment" of that popular uprising is needed before declaring the day a national holiday.
This follows President Kurmanbek Bakiev's recent declaration of Macrh 24 as a new "Tulip Revolution" public holiday (06-Mar-2006).
