इटली: जॉर्जिया मेलोनी को करारा झटका, जनता ने न्यायिक सुधारों को नकारा, जनमत संग्रह में मिली करारी हार – Giorgia Meloni Italy Judicial Reform Referendum Results voter ntc ksrj
Italy’s right-wing government led by Prime Minister Georgia Meloni has faced strong public opposition just a year before the upcoming national elections. Italian voters have voted against sweeping judicial reforms proposed by the government, which is being considered a major defeat for Meloni’s leadership.
Italy According to Home Ministry data, about 54 percent votes were cast in favor of ‘No’ against the government, while ‘Yes’ got only 46 percent votes in support of the reforms. The turnout in this two-day long poll was 59 percent, much more than expected. There was a lot of polarization in the country on this issue.
This referendum was related to major changes in the judicial system of Italy. The proposed reforms included a provision to separate the careers of judges and prosecutors, so that they could not interchange roles.

Apart from this, there was also a proposal to change the structure of the ‘High Judicial Council’, which oversees the appointment of judges and disciplinary matters. The government wanted to divide this council into three different parts and change the method of selection of members, which was considered an attack on the independence of the judiciary.
Analysts believe that defeat in the referendum could cause a political blow to the Meloni government at the domestic and international level. This may also reveal differences within the ruling coalition and change the political environment before the upcoming national elections.
This defeat has not only exposed the cracks in Meloni’s coalition government within Italy, but may also weaken his position at the international level. In particular, questions are now being raised about Meloni’s association with US President Donald Trump and his unpopular war against Iran.
