Atmosphere of Navruz reigns in “Dilbuloq” mahalla

-

This year, in “Dilbuloq” mahalla of Yakkasaray district in Tashkent, the Navruz holiday is celebrated with a particular mood. Based on a public-private partnershi­p, a modern building for citizens’ assembly was built here. The entrances of multi-storey buildings, internal streets, and basements were repaired. The canal bank has been cleaned and turned into a beautiful walking area. Flower beds, trees, and walking paths gave the mahalla a unique look.

Last fall, almost 4 thousand trees and shrubs were planted as part of the nationwide “Yashil Makon” (Green Space) project. These days, basil and hesperis are planted in front of apartment buildings.

More than 6.7 thousand people live in “Dilbuloq” mahalla. The mahalla specialize­s in services and production. There are almost 300 trade and service points and industrial facilities where local youth and women work. There is a preschool education institutio­n, a family clinic, a specialize­d sports school, and a branch of the pedagogica­l institute.

Based on the “Safe Mahalla” principle, 360 video surveillan­ce cameras were installed in the district and connected to the office of the Mahalla prevention inspector.

Last year, 112 people were employed, and 181 citizens became self-employed. Loans were allocated for 23 projects and subsidies for almost ten citizens to attract the population to entreprene­urship. In particular, a sewing workshop, a beauty salon, printing and computer services centers, a library, and food and confection­ery stores have been created here.

The Head of state inspected these complexes and held sincere conversati­ons with residents of the mahalla.

“First of all, I congratula­te you on the holidays, the upcoming Navruz. I am glad to see improvemen­t, jobs and a festive atmosphere in your mahalla. Why do I visit places often? Because I believe in people. We must strive for such changes in all mahallas.

There are 9,450 mahallas in our country, and 585 in Tashkent. Now we are organizing a system that will connect economic complexes with mahallas. Our goal is to reach every home, every person”, the President said.
