Over 3 Million protest, French Govt. considering to repeal the law?: "-Over 3 million people took part in protest demonstrations against the new labor law in France yesterday, the organizers feel that the result of upcoming negotiations are still uncertain even though the govt. has invited them.

 

About 800,000 people took part in the anti-CPE protest in Paris and 300,000 in Marseille. However, the police estimate that the figure was lower, at the same time, the demonstration is counted serious and well organized and has submitted their report to their govt. grading the 'situation as grave'.

The massive turnout for a second week has shaken the government, the parliamentarians feel convinced that the law must change or be dropped otherwise there is an apprehension of a civil war, an MP said in anonymity.

The govt. is more serious than before to negotiate and set their mistake rectified as per their latest trend. "
