A neighborhood in China that was deemed "Shameful" became "Most Exemplary" in about a month

The "Birlik" neighborhood in Chinaz district, almost a month after being declared a "Shameful neighborhood" by the district governor in early August, won first place in the "Most Exemplary Neighborhood" competition held at the regional level.

Initially, the neighborhood was recognized as a "Shameful Neighborhood" due to the unsatisfactory state of landscaping and sanitation, the lack of planting of flowers and basil, the lack of mowing or removal of mowed grass, as well as the inadequate handling of residents' appeals and the implementation of assigned tasks.

The district governor's press service told "Daryo" that the "Birlik" neighborhood was especially recognized for its activity in large-scale landscaping and creative work carried out within the framework of the "40-Day Urgent". The hokim's statement emphasized that this achievement is a worthy recognition of the solidarity, initiative, and desire of the residents and activists of the mahalla to improve their territory. The winning mahalla was presented with a voucher worth 500 million soums as an incentive.

In his statement to "Daryo" regarding the "Shameful Neighborhood" incident, the hokim of Chinaz district Sherzod Solihov stated that such a procedure had not been introduced anywhere, that the "Shameful Neighborhood" banner was hung and then immediately removed. According to the hokim, this was his personal initiative, and at the end of the meeting, he was told that this would be done if the tasks were not completed. However, the banner was filmed only for posting on social media and was not hung in any house or mahalla. "We hung it up, showed it, and took it back again with the intention of doing so," the hokim said.
