Dushanbe has turned into a dump

After the material Azda TV on the environmental situation and the lack of cleanliness by the residents of the rural community of Khulbuk in the Vose district, the editorial office of Azda TV received numerous complaints.

In particular, Facebook users under the post by Azda TV write that the environmental situation in Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan, whose mayor is the son of the President of Tajikistan, Rustam Emomali, is much worse than in other districts.

Users note that the garbage in the city of Dushanbe causes “concern”.

“Previously, the city was cleaned one or two times a week in front of residential buildings and garbage containers. Now, in the heat, it is cleaned only once or twice a month, which can lead to an outbreak of infectious diseases and threatens the health of the city’s residents,” users write.

“Day by day, the city is becoming dirtier and dirtier. Residents are charged in advance for utility services, however, garbage is not removed on time. They are only busy raising utility prices, increasing fines and taxes, but they do not think about the residents,” writes another user.

“The streets of Dushanbe have turned into a dump,” summarized a third user.

Rustam Emomali was appointed mayor of Dushanbe in 2017 by a decree of his father, Emomali Rahmon. It has been 7 years since he took office as mayor of the capital. He replaced Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloev in this position. However, the city’s residents sharply criticize Rustam Emomali, claiming that he cannot solve the city’s problems.
