The Inter-institutional Committee for the Promotion of the Census meets this day, at the call of the civic Rómulo Calvo, to evaluate the next actions after the approval of the Census Law in the Chamber of Deputies. They are expected to decide whether or not the indefinite strike continues in Santa Cruz.
“This is a very particular opinion, we should declare an intermediate room, but with a permanent alert and supervising what may happen in the Senate. But that’s not a decision that goes through me, I am going to transmit that request to the Civic Committee, after having received several calls with that request (to lift the strike). Yesterday we were supposed to meet, but there was nothing to evaluate (waiting for what would happen in the Lower House) and there was a lack of coordination in the morning, but the chairman of the committee Civic is calling a meeting todayn”, reported the rector Vicente Cuéllar on EL DEBER Radio.
The university authority admitted to the program ¡Qué Semana! that there is fatigue among the citizens and that “There are people who have taken advantage of this strike very well”, referring to the collections at certain blocking points and that could not be controlled due to the magnitude of the strike. “When the people start to empower themselves and take to the streets, it’s hard to control each and every one.”
Despite these difficulties, he stressed that Santa Cruz gained unity with this fight, In addition, the results are known by September 2024, according to the Government’s commitment. Cuéllar clarified that with his participation in the fight for the census he did not seek any type of leadership.
Bill 05 on the Application of the Results of the Population and Housing Census contemplates the distribution of resources and seats, although on the latter it only says “it would be applied in the next elections.” Now The norm passes to the Senate, which will decide whether or not to sanction the project.
Regarding the debate in the Legislative Assembly, Cuéllar noted the “misreading” of some parliamentarians who they used adjectives of animosity against the cruceños and reminded them that not only cambas live in Santa Cruz, but also people from the interior of the country.
“You have to listen to harsh criticism where the mildest adjective was criminals, separatists. This manifest animosity on the part of those parliamentarians It does a lot of damage to those meeting points that we must permanently seek. They follow slogans and do not make an objective analysis,” he said.
