In modern society, it is especially important to cultivate among young people an understanding of religious extremism and to foster respect for all nationalities and faiths. Tolerance, mutual understanding, and legal literacy are essential conditions for maintaining interethnic harmony and social stability in the Republic of Kazakhstan.
Thus, on October 14, in the Republic Hall of Rudny Polytechnic College, a meeting was held between first-year students (75 participants) and a representative of the competent authorities. Zhaslan Saktaganov, a member of the regional IRG and a specialist from the Public Institution “Center for the Study of Religious Issues” of Kostanay Region, gave a detailed explanation of key provisions of the legislation on religious security and drew attention to the responsibility for the illegal distribution of religious literature.
In particular, he provided clarifications on Article 490 of the Administrative Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan and Article 256 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan, which establish liability for violations of legislation in the field of religion.
Such events help raise the level of legal culture among young people, strengthen civic responsibility, and foster respect for the multinational society of the country.
Knowledge of the law and tolerance serve as a reliable shield against destructive ideas and extremism.
