A protest rally demanding the resignation of the government starts this morning at 10 am from the square in front of the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral downtown Sofia. It will pass along the Trakia highway to Pazardzhik and back. Organizer of the rally is the "Together" Movement. Another protest, organized by the MIR party, was convened in front of the building of the Council of Ministers with a request for machine voting in the parliamentary elections, BNR reporters inform.
