The political struggle between AKP and CHP is intensifying. Yalçın Doğan's article discusses AKP's efforts to eliminate CHP cadres.

Starting with the Democratic Party's rise to power in the 1950 elections, the current situation sees AKP making moves against the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality. AKP threatens the direct circulation of CHP and cannot accept losing Istanbul.

Yalçın Doğan points out that AKP disregards the will of the people of Istanbul, threatening water sources and forests. This situation cuts off the lifelines of Istanbul and plays a gamble that will affect all of Turkey.

On the other hand, CHP is developing a new model of opposition that prioritizes public participation. This process, which began with the arrest of Ekrem İmamoğlu, continues with intense rallies and signature campaigns.

The reason for AKP's anxiety is the public's response to CHP's form of opposition that ensures direct participation. This indicates that AKP is trying to sustain its policies solely by using the judicial stick.
