Currently, great attention is being paid to finding prompt solutions for issues that concern people, as well as establishing dialogue with them and conducting a detailed analysis of existing shortcomings and problems.
Dilnoza Kattakhonova, Deputy Minister of the Republic of Uzbekistan and Chair of the Committee on Family and Women's Affairs, held an open meeting with a group of women. During this meeting, she spoke individually with each applicant.
The problems worrying the women, the reasons for these difficulties, the measures taken so far, and the practical solutions expected by citizens were discussed in detail. The appeals covered various aspects of life, including housing and social assistance, employment and job placement, family relations and legal protection, protection against pressure and violence, healthcare and children's education, as well as alimony and child benefits.
Special attention was paid to the appeals of women who are in a difficult social situation, have lost their provider, are raising children alone, or are facing complex health or housing situations. Furthermore, proposals and requests regarding ensuring employment for young women, realizing their professional potential, supporting entrepreneurial initiatives, and expanding educational opportunities were heard.
Each appeal relates to a vital issue, and the opportunity to be heard is the first step toward achieving a targeted solution. The Committee on Family and Women's Affairs continues its work to strengthen direct communication with women, listen to their problems on site, and find practical solutions.
In the New Uzbekistan, a key criterion for implementing reforms is increasing human value and ensuring that the needs and problems of every citizen are not ignored. Thanks to the President's initiative, the social protection system for the population has reached a completely new level. Special attention is paid to supporting people with disabilities, lonely elderly people, and those who need care from others, which has become one of the main directions of state policy. Good deeds carried out in local communities today are a practical reflection of this humane policy and find their embodiment in the lives of citizens.
Systematic work is being carried out in the 'Qozikent' mahalla of the Jondor district of Bukhara region to provide social support to the population, targeted assistance to needy families, as well as care for people with disabilities and lonely elderly people. This mahalla has 3375 residents, and social worker Salohiddin Bahridinov carries out his activities based on the principle of individual work with every needy citizen. This approach allows for studying the needs of each person and providing them with appropriate social services.
Currently, there are 80 people with disabilities living in the mahalla. Four of them have been involved in adaptive sports classes, which has given them the opportunity to participate in physical activity and social life. In addition, 14 citizens have been employed, and suitable conditions have been created for their independent living. Also, 33 needy people have received orthopedic prosthetics and technical rehabilitation aids.
Elderly people living alone are also under the attention of the state and society. Currently, three lonely elderly people are under constant social protection. As part of the 'Step to Active Life' program, household and social services are regularly provided at home to five citizens who need care from others.
The results of these good deeds are clearly demonstrated by the example of Tamara Zulfikorova, who lives with her sister Norgul Boboyeva. The mahalla social worker added Tamara to the register of lonely elderly people and launched a targeted assistance system. This assistance included referral to a sanatorium for health recovery, medical examination, free provision of necessary medicines, and allocation of financial aid. Additionally, within the framework of the 'Step to Active Life' program, home-based domestic support was organized. One-time financial aid was provided on the occasion of the autumn-winter period and the Ramadan holiday, and regular compensation payments are made on time.
An important moment was the installation of a modern solar panel in this house at the initiative of sponsors. This not only helps reduce electricity costs but also improves the family's living conditions. Such practical help is not just material support, but a vivid example of attention, love, and care for a person.
The work being done in the 'Qozikent' mahalla today once again confirms the truth: in a society where people are valued, no one is left without attention. Obtaining information about the condition of every needy person, listening to their problems, and finding practical solutions has become a way of life in the mahalla. Good deeds in the 'Qozikent' mahalla are another bright proof that the interests of the individual have become the main measure of all reforms in New Uzbekistan. These charitable initiatives, based on the principle 'For the Value of Man' put forward by the head of state, strengthen the atmosphere of compassion, solidarity, and social justice in society. Most importantly, such endeavors strengthen citizens' faith in a better future, demonstrating in practice that no one is alone, and the state and society are always there for them.
At the initiative of the President, close attention is paid to the open communication of heads of state institutions with the people, a responsible approach to every appeal, and the effective use of digital technologies.
To ensure the fulfillment of these tasks, another field reception of the National Guard command was organized. Thanks to online video conferencing, citizens and servicemen from various regions of the country were able to take direct part in the reception and raise issues of social significance and concern.
The main advantage was the absence of the need for applicants to travel long distances. This contributed to saving time, preventing unnecessary expenses, and increasing the efficiency of interaction with the population. During the reception, every appeal was carefully studied, and specific assignments were given to responsible persons. Most issues were resolved on the spot, while appeals requiring further study were placed under strict control.
According to Colonel in retirement Uktam Khaitov, such receptions in modern format create significant convenience for the population. He emphasized that state institutions strive to find solutions to citizens' problems. Through the online reception, people even from the most remote areas can directly convey their appeals to the leadership. This not only saves time and money but also strengthens the transparency of state bodies, their communication with the people, and their accountability. Most importantly, as U. Khaitov noted, one must not forget that behind every appeal is a person's fate.
Such open communication and a modern approach contribute to strengthening public trust in state structures, ensuring people's interests, and developing a new, effective system of interaction with society.
As part of the National Guard championship in sports combat, a high-level competition program was organized at the Directorate of the National Guard of the Syrdarya Region. This event contributed to strengthening the physical fitness of servicemen, improving sporting skills, promoting a healthy lifestyle, and reinforcing an atmosphere of mutual solidarity and healthy competition among teams.
Servicemen from the Republic of Karakalpakstan, various regions, and special units participated in national combat competitions, demonstrating their mastery. The fights took place in a tense and fair atmosphere, where participants showed a high level of physical readiness, technical preparation, endurance, resilience, and a strong desire to win.
Each bout was conducted based on the principles of sports ethics, honesty, and mutual respect, which once again confirmed that the competition was held in a fair and dignified spirit. Furthermore, the fights highlighted the invaluable role of sports in enhancing the fighting spirit and professional skills of servicemen. The main goal of the tournament was to develop the physical capabilities of servicemen, widely promote a healthy lifestyle among them, increase interest in sports, and identify the strongest athletes.
Following the heated matches, the team of the National Guard Directorate for the Republic of Karakalpakstan took first place in the team standings. The 'Qalqon' brigade won second place, and the 'Sarboz' brigade team took third place. At the awards ceremony, diplomas, cups, and souvenirs were solemnly presented to the winners and prize-winners. Their achievements were recognized as a deserved result of dedication to sports, regular training, and strong will.
