Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the State Committee for Refugees and IDPs, Ali Hasanov visited the Jojug Marjanli village, liberated from the Armenian occupation in April 2016, and met with local residents.
Hasanov said that the construction work, in which 30 types of equipment and more than 350 workers are involved, is planned to be completed within a month.
The current stage stipulates of construction of 100 private houses, a kindergarten for 50 children, medical center, administrative building, post office and other social and infrastructure objects.
Jojug Marjanli village was fully liberated from the Armenian occupation in April 2016, when Azerbaijani Armed Forces prevented an Armenian provocation on the contact line. To protect civilian population, the Azerbaijani army launched counter attacks and as a result, the Azerbaijani troops retook hills around the village of Talish, as well as Seysulan settlement, and also took over Leletepe hill located in the direction of Fizuli region.
President Ilham Aliyev ordered to restore Jojug Marjanli in late January 2017. Under the order, 4 million manats ($2.35 million) were allocated for the construction of 50 private houses, a school building and relevant infrastructure at the first stage.
Moreover, President signed an order on additional measures to construct the road leading to the village and allocated 4.3 million manats ($2.53 million) from the state budget for the construction of a 9-km long highway.
On June 15, President signed a decree that envisages the beginning of the next phase of construction and restoration work and work on improvement and creation in Jojug Marjanli.
