At present annual community meetings take place in the residential
areas of Artsakh. Works implemented by rural district councils in 2008
are generalized and estimated, the forthcoming tasks are outlined. With
the aim of getting directly familiarized with the situation at spot,
the NKR Prime Minister Ara Haroutyunyan participates in separate
community meetings according to schedules, the residential areas having
a pivotal role in their regions have been chosen, there is a necessity
of making problems specified and newly elucidating the policy carried
out by the authorities.
The Prime Minister's first meeting with the rural inhabitants took
place on February 18, in Askeran region's Acknaghbyur and Avetaranots
villages. The certain similarity of social and economic, moral and
psychological state of the residential areas neighbouring each other is
accompanied by obvious and essential differences. According to the
account by the community head of Avetaranots K.Mickaelyan, the exaction
of taxes was successfully completed (103.3%), but only 370 hectares out
of 874 hectares of arable land was cultivated. Expressing his doubts
and anxiety in this connection, the Head of the NKR Government briefly
presented the state programmes aimed at development of the agricultural
sphere. Not to make use of this comprehensive support and t
o leave the
land uncultivated means to have little income and to hinder from the
general development of the village,- Ara Haroutyunyan emphasized. In
the village with former fine economic traditions an obvious passivity
is being recorded today, when the state renders an interest-free and a
mortgage-free credit for grain production, provides a compensation-free
aid for the organization of cultivation according to agricultural rules.
In Avetaranots turbulent dissatisfaction was expressed especially
in connection with those problems which are to be solved just by the
community efforts, without any outside support. The village is
gasificated, it has an ambulatory medical post, but the problem of a
doctor has not been solved for several years. In the village of more
than 1000 inhabitants the one-time active hospital is desired to be
seen a restored one with a good specialist. The Prime Minister
A.Haroutyunyan promised to support settling this problem, he visited
the medical post and got familiarized with the working conditions.
Distinguishing the rural problems needing state support, the Prime
Minister informed that the problem of drinking water will soon be
finally solved, necessary steps will be taken to open a second group in
the nursery school.
A.Haroutyunyan visited the culture home of Avetaranots as well.
Getting acquainted with the ramshackle building no longer fit for being
employed, the Prime Minister examined the problem
with the competent
bodies at spot and charged them with a task to prepare within a short
time-limit the necessary documents of projects and estimates for the
reconstruction works being implemented there in future.
A considerably quiet and more practical state dominates in
Acknaghbyur. Here the greater part of arable land is being cultivated,
soon gasification will be completed, there is a culture home in the
village. The primary demand of the people is to reconstruct the road to
the village, to secure in the community the work of a specialist in the
post of an agriculturist (these demands were sounded in Avetaranots as
well). Complaints in concern with not purposefully using the state
means allotted for improving the state of the village and
reconstructing the damaged houses were sounded as well.
The Prime Minister A. Haroutyunyan clarified to the natives that
the community councilor must operate actively, it must control the
village arrangements and the issues under its competence. `The local
self-government body must operate intensively and not avoid its own
rights and obligations',- the Prime Minister noted.
In response to the inquiries of the rural inhabitants, the head of
the NKR Government announced that the state will soon render
hypothecary credits for the reconstruction of village houses. In 2009,
crediting of cattle breeding will be restarted. This year the
Government has allotted20corresponding means to community agriculturists
as well. Such posts will be rendered to the communities which have
corresponding specialists and a sufficient volume of work.
Generalizing the direct and sincere dialogue with the rural
inhabitants, the Prime Minister A.Haroutyunyan noted that the progress
of the Republic of Artsakh mainly depends on the agricultural
development, thus people of this sphere must widely use the favourable
opportunities provided by the state programmes and create a prosperous
worthy life for themselves and their community.
