The ceremony was also attended by representatives of the state executive authority and residents of the village.
A grant in the amount of 92,579 US dollars was allocated for the implementation of the project within the framework of the program of the Government of Japan on gratuitous assistance for the general population and humanitarian security (GGP).
Prior to the implementation of the project, the school building was in poor condition, and students studied in unfavorable conditions. Due to the lack of classrooms, some schoolchildren were forced to go to school in neighboring villages, which created difficulties for schoolchildren, especially in winter.
