DUSHANBE, August 2, 2011, Asia-Plus -- Dushanbe Mayor Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloyev yesterday met with heads of relevant municipal services, local entrepreneurs and clerics to discuss issues related to saturating the city’s bazaars with food products during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
Shavkat Saidov, a spokesman for the Dushanbe mayor’s office, says Ubaidulloyev called on heads of local bazaars and owners of 20 butcher’s shops in Dushanbe’s neighborhood # 33, who have received preferential loans from the mayor’s office, to lower the prices they charge for their products during the holy month of Ramadan and on the threshold of the 20th anniversary of Tajikistan’s Independence.
The sides also agreed that during Ramadan, butcher’s shops will sell lamb to social facilities at 23.00 somoni per kilogram and outlets of Tojikmatlubot (consumer cooperatives) will sell beef to vulnerable families at 22.00 per one kilogram.
Besides, Dushanbe’s municipal markets will distribute 10 kilograms of meat to vulnerable people every day free of charge each in accordance with list of the municipal authorities. The Korvon, Panjsher and Ganjina markets will distribute 30 kilograms of meat to vulnerable citizens free of charge each and the city’s private bazaars will distribute five kilograms of meat free of charge each, the spokesman stressed.
For the purpose of ensuring decline in prices for basic food products during the holy month of Ramadan, the mayor also ordered to announce a month-long moratorium on inspection of Dushanbe’s markets by appropriate agencies, except sanitary and veterinary services, Saidov noted.
He added that during the holy month of Ramadan, 92-octane gasoline would be sold at 6.20 somoni per liter and liquefied gas would be sold at 2.90 somoni per liter.
