The constitution as a legal document is the main law on the structure of the state, its duties and rights, as well as the rights and legal relations of citizens and state bodies. That is, the Constitution acts as the main law of the republic, country and state.
Here, the constitution regulates the activities of all state bodies and protects the rights of citizens. The Constitution is recognized as the main law of the state system, a document defining the rights, freedoms and obligations of society and citizens.
The constitution includes all important issues related to the structure of the state, the order of government, legal foundations, and the rights of citizens. It also ensures the implementation of these legal laws included in the Constitution.
Also, the constitution defines the main principles of economic, political, social and cultural life of the state. In a word, if we call the society and people a whole state, the constitution is the umbrella of this state.
It is a legal document that legally protects the state from various external influences and ensures the legal security of citizens living in the territory of this country. We know that a referendum was held on the territory of the Republic of Uzbekistan on April 30, 2023, and a new version of the Constitution of the Republic of Uzbekistan was developed.
This constitution entered into force on the territory of our country from May 1, 2023. According to the new version of the constitution, up to 65% changes were made. In particular, the number of articles has increased to 155, and 6 sections and 27 chapters have been defined.
According to the old constitution, there were 128 articles. Today’s increase in substances clearly proves that the capabilities of society and the state have been further expanded.
When this constitution was adopted, none of the state bodies, as well as citizens of the Republic of Uzbekistan, were left out of consideration. The first section of our constitution is called “Basic principles”, and the first chapter starts with state sovereignty.
Article 1 of the Republic of Uzbekistan establishes Uzbekistan as a sovereign, democratic, legal, social and secular state.
Also, Article 2 states that state bodies and officials are responsible to society and the people. Having touched on the articles, we can see that it is firmly established that the Uzbek language is the state language.
This clearly proves that citizens have freedom of speech. Through this, he emphasizes that our language is also in high regard. The fact that the Republic of Uzbekistan has its state symbols and that these symbols are under state protection is confirmed in Article 5.
Chapter 3 of the Constitution is devoted to the Constitution of the Republic of Uzbekistan and includes Articles 15-16.
According to it, it is stated that our constitution has the power of the only supreme authority throughout the territory of the republic, the unconditional recognition of the constitution and laws, and that no law or other normative legal documents can contradict the principles and norms of the constitution.
