Significant developments are occurring in the CHP Istanbul Provincial Presidency. The court has decided that Gürsel Tekin will continue in his role.

On October 8, 2023, during the CHP's 38th Ordinary Istanbul Congress, a lawsuit was filed by CHP Istanbul Delegate Özlem Erkan to annul the congress. The court rejected this request and decided that Gürsel Tekin would continue in his role.

The court rejected the appeals made by CHP lawyers and announced that Gürsel Tekin and the calling committee would remain in office. This decision indicates that the discussions within the CHP will continue.

After the court's decision, Gürsel Tekin stated, "I came to this position by court order. If the court says they no longer need to perform their duties, then I will leave."

The discussions and court process surrounding the CHP's 38th Ordinary Congress are seen as a critical turning point for the future of the party. The developments in this process will continue to affect the internal dynamics of the CHP.
