During a video selection meeting chaired by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev on July 27 of this year, upcoming priority tasks in the fuel and energy complex sector were discussed. It was noted that although the use of liquefied gas has been digitized and organized, the issue of timely and guaranteed delivery has not been fully resolved. Therefore, it was proposed to diversify the volumes of gas cylinders based on the actual needs of households.
Continuous and quality supply of energy resources to the population is one of the pressing tasks for utility services. In this context, the activities of the 'Hududgaz Namangan' branch in providing gas are considered one of the key areas of work.
It is emphasized that behind every achieved figure and result is hard work. Currently, systemic measures are being carried out in the region to deliver liquefied gas to consumers in an organized and transparent manner. From January to June 2026, a total of 35,472.53 tons of liquefied gas were delivered to 488,083 consumers in 754 settlements, covering 61% of consumers.
Murodjon Khojaev, Deputy Director of the 'Hududgaz Namangan' branch for liquefied gas supplies, noted that the new digitization system allows for improving the quality of gas cylinder distribution services and ensuring that the product reaches the end consumer directly. When analyzing the volume of liquefied gas delivered by districts, the following districts contributed the most: Namangan city (3,533.86 tons), Norin (3,510.18 tons), To'raqo'rg'on (3,343.80 tons), Kosonsoy (3,285.84 tons), Uchii (3,232.88 tons), and Yangiqo'rg'on (3,099.82 tons).
'Eco-Debate' is a new initiative developed with the goal of improving the environmental culture of young people. This project is being implemented with the participation of the Uzbekistan Ecological Party.
The main objective of this endeavor is to increase environmental knowledge and culture among youth, to form an active civic position in them regarding environmental issues, and to develop skills in critical thinking, discussion, and debating.
Currently, there are many environmental problems that require enriching the ecological knowledge and views of the population, especially young people, and raising eco-culture. In this area, the Uzbekistan Ecological Party conducts a number of events, including projects, competitions, various events, and meetings.
'Eco-Debate' is viewed as the next step aimed at uniting the country's youth, drawing attention to environmental issues, and increasing responsibility towards nature. To ensure a high level of project organization, a meeting was held at a session of the Central Council of the Uzbekistan Ecological Party.
Employees responsible for working with youth, women, and mass media from organizations in the Karakalpakstan Republic, regions, and Tashkent city took part in this meeting. The issues of implementing the project were discussed comprehensively at the meeting.
