President Shavkat Mirziyoyev has proposed the construction of a new drinking water supply network stretching from the Gissarak Reservoir to the city of Karshi in the Kashkadarya region. The announcement came during a regional development meeting focused on infrastructure improvements.

In addition, modernization of Karshi’s sewage system is set to begin this June. The project will be financed through a $60 mln loan from an international financial institution.
