Protecting the nation's gene pool from detrimental ailments is a crucial task. Dependency is a disease that causes serious damage to a person's health, future, mental state, family relationships, and social life.
Narcotrafficking is a crime associated with narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, and illegal actions related to them, which poses a threat to public safety. Therefore, a constant fight is being waged against these ailments.

The meeting took place with the participation of Major General Azizbek Ikramov, Minister of Emergency Situations, and Director of the Youth Affairs Agency Alisher Sadullaev.
Road safety is today not only the responsibility of law enforcement agencies but also an important function of the deputies' body and the public, as every tragedy on the road is a sorrow for a family, and every prevented disaster is a saved human life.
As part of the national program 'With the People' by O‘zLiDeP, a public hearing was held in the Syrdarya region, where issues and ways to solve problems in the field of road traffic and cadastre were discussed in detail, and important proposals were put forward in the interests of the population.
The hearings were attended by Senator, Chairman of the Syrdarya Regional Council of O‘zLiDeP, Pokiza Akhmedjanov; Deputy of the Laws Chamber of the Supreme Majlis, Gavhar Alimov; Head of the apparatus of the Party Regional Council, Deputy of the People's Council at the regional level, Shohista Bozorboev; as well as deputies of regional, district, and city councils and heads of responsible departments.
A report from the Public Security Department of the Internal Affairs Department of the Syrdarya region on the work done in the first half of 2026 was presented. It was noted that thanks to systematic preventive measures, the total number of road traffic accidents in the region decreased by 28.6%, and the number of accidents with injuries decreased by 42.6%. In addition, detailed information was provided on the work to improve road infrastructure, widespread implementation of digital technologies, vehicle registration in the state register, and the implementation of state programs.
It was also discussed that the State Cadastre Department of the Syrdarya region is engaged in registering real estate objects in the state register, legalizing cadastral documents, commissioning new facilities, and improving the quality of public services provided to the population.
The deputies voiced their comments and suggestions on some issues in this area, giving appropriate recommendations to the responsible persons. A number of practical proposals aimed at further strengthening road safety were put forward during the discussions. In particular, it was proposed to reduce the permitted speed on certain sections of the M-39 'Tashkent–Termiz' and A-373a 'Okhangaron–Guliston–Sardoba' highways from 100 km/h to 80 km/h.
According to the responsible persons, such measures contribute to reducing the number of road traffic accidents and increasing the safety of road users. Following the hearings, recommendations were given to the responsible organizations regarding the implementation of the expressed proposals. An agreement was also reached on regular monitoring of the implementation of the raised issues under the control of deputy oversight.
It is important to note that this public hearing, organized as part of the 'With the People' program, creates a basis for studying problems that concern the public, increasing the transparency and accountability of the activities of responsible departments, as well as strengthening the influence of deputy oversight from parliament and local Councils.
Information was presented at the Senate Committee meeting on agrarian issues, water management, and ecology regarding the work done to review appeals from individuals and legal entities to the Joint Stock Company 'Uzsuvta'minot', conduct meetings with the public, and organize public hearings to resolve raised issues and problems.
It was noted that in the first half of 2026, over 7.8 thousand appeals related to the activities of the Joint Stock Company 'Uzsuvta'minot' were received by the Presidential Virtual and Public Reception offices. This figure decreased by 24% compared to the same period last year. Of the total number of appeals, 4,911 cases were resolved positively.
The main part of the appeals is related to accidents in drinking water networks, interruptions in water supply, and low water pressure; 2,408 appeals were registered on this issue. Additionally, 1,788 appeals were received regarding payments for drinking water, debt, and recalculation, and 1,067 appeals concerned connection to centralized drinking water networks.
Furthermore, during the past year, 1,400 repeat appeals were received, which is 36% higher than the figure for the same period last year. By region, the highest number of repeat appeals came from residents of Surkhandarya region (136 appeals), Tashkent city (126 appeals), Tashkent (93 appeals), Fergana region (86 appeals), and Kashkadarya region (81 appeal).
During the discussion, it was emphasized that the presence of repeat and collective appeals indicates the persistence of certain shortcomings in the appeals handling system. In particular, it was noted that problems that could have been resolved at the local level are not being considered in a timely manner, and meetings and explanatory work with the public on issues requiring additional time, funds, and resources are not being conducted sufficiently, which is the reason for the increase in repeat and collective appeals.
Attention was also drawn to deficiencies in the quality of appeal consideration, control of execution, and on-site problem resolution in some districts. Following the meeting, relevant recommendations were given to responsible persons to eliminate the identified shortcomings in appeal consideration, solve on-site problems, prevent repeat appeals, and further improve the system of interaction with the public.
