Hundereds of Turkish women held protests in Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir against the AKP party government's latest policies to intervene the lifestyle of young people in the country.

The demonstrations were organized by Workers' Party and several women organizations under the slogan "Women are rising up! Together with men!"

Workers' Party General Secretary for women Pinar Gul said that the government settles its accounts with Turkish Republic. "And we will definitely not allow them to realize their aim," she said.

Protesters voiced their concerns about the future of Turkish Republic and the secularism in the country. This is the first public response by Turkish women to the official move of the ruling Justice and Development Party.

According to the latest democratization package that was announced last month by Erdogan, the government allowed the women deputies to wear their headscraf in the Turkish Parliament.

The implementation of the new law has faced sharp criticism by the secular and Kemalist (Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founder of modern, secular Turkey ) women in Turkey.

"First of all I am the soldier of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. Turkish parliament is Turkish Republic's supreme parliament, not a parliament of an Islamic country," one of the women protester, Sacide Dikkaya in Kadikoy district of Istanbul, told Xinhua.

Appealing the women deputies not to wear their headscraf inside the parliament, she said, "Their headscraf is a not a symbol of the religion, it is an indicator of a specific political view."

Another woman who was a former deputy from Democratic Socialist Party criticized women deputies who do not wear headscraf allowing the others to enter into the parliament.

"If I was there I would fight against them till the end. No one has the right to held a political show in Turkey's supreme parliament," she added.

Protesters in Kadikoy also expressed their criticism against Erdogan's statement about the houses in which male and female students live together.

"I am not supporting what is going on in Turkey. AKP is dragging the country into chaos. I want to live in a country where my children would freely live together with their boyfriends or girlfriends. We are here with our male companions to struggle against AKP," said another woman protester.
