Governors, mayors and ministers must switch to proactive methods of work, said Shavkat Mirziyoyev at a government meeting on the effectiveness of reforms, the state of affairs in the provinces and the search for solutions to concern of the public today morning. the spokesman to the president Sherzod Asadov said.
The president underscored that in the first five months of the year, industry grew by 6.4%, exports - by 18%, foreign investment - by 46%. More than 2,500 new capacities worth $3 billion were commissioned, with 2.4 million people now receiving income.
Shavkat Mirziyoyev pointed to the shortcomings in the work of ministries, governor and mayor offices related to solving everyday problems that can be solved on the ground.
He said that in each district, more than 40 organizations employ an average of 500 employees. But some district organizations address to a national-level organization to solve even simple problems.
The president gave examples. In the center of Kumkurgan, at a railway crossing, a barrier blocks traffic 20 times a day. If it is moved by 200 m aside, it is possible to avoid traffic jams in which 8,000 cars get stuck. But neither the district mayor nor the provincial governor have the authority to do this - permit from Uzbekistan Railways is required.
Because half of the Termez-Sariasiya railway is not electrified, diesel locomotives cover a distance in 3 hours that electric locomotives would cover in 1.5 hours. For this reason, most people prefer to travel by car.
By electrifying this route, it is possible to safely connect 10 districts with Termez, but Transport Minister Ilkhom Makhkamov and Uzbekistan Airways CEO Zufar Narzullaev are showing a lack of initiative, the president said.
