KULOB, February 24, Asia-Plus — The Communist Party’s (CPT) organization for Khovaling district has held the 22
nd
conference to hear reports and elect new officials.
The conference has summed up the results of work carried out by the organization over the past five years.
Sharif Safarov, first secretary of the regional organization of the CPT in Kulob, has told Asia-Plus that Hasan Haidarov was reelected the first secretary and Safargul Allanazarov and Ghulom Fayzulloyev were elected secretaries of the CPT organization in Khovaling.
According to Safarov, the CPT organization for Khovaling is in a very poor state.
Local authorities have even forbidden the office that had previously been provided to the first secretary of the CPT organization in the district,” said Sharif Safarov, “Now Hasan Haidarov has to keep all the party documents at his home.”
“In the other nine districts of the Kulob region we have managed to find a common language with organs of the local governments,” Safarov said, noting that local authorities of those districts do not make pressure on the Communists.
“During the February 2005 parliamentary elections the results of voting in Khovaling were falsified and it turned out that of 600 members of the CPT living in the district, only 63 voted for their party,” first secretary of the regional organization of the CPT in Kulob said.
Sharif Safarov has noted that they will have held the conference to hear reports and elect new officials in all districts of the Kulob region by late March.
