An Evaluation on Üsküdar Municipality Operation and Dream City Elegy

Based on the news of Cumhuriyet newspaper, it was reported that as a result of the operation carried out in Üsküdar Municipality, 15 district mayors of Istanbul were removed from their duties and the number of votes usurped as the administrations were taken over, contrary to the votes given to CHP in the 2024 local elections, reached 1 million 382 thousand 746. While the article declares that this situation is a blow to democracy, it emphasizes the contrast between Üsküdar's historical richness and current economic poverty by referring to Yahya Kemal's poem 'Dream City'. The elegy text, supported by poetry, criticizes the reversal of the ballot box results, the usurpation of law and will, the restriction of people's freedom, and the transformation of Üsküdar from an imaginary city into a dungeon, arguing that the events have serious social and democratic consequences.
