These revisions sought to modernize the state's legal framework, enhance government efficiency, and improve individual rights. Despite significant public interest and debate, the proposed revisions ultimately failed to pass, reflecting the challenges of political consensus and the complexities of amending a foundational document. The attempts highlighted the ongoing need for a more adaptable and relevant state constitution.
