A meeting of the territorial election commission of Tashkent region was held. At the event, under the leadership of the commission’s chairman, Ulugbek Tukhtayev, several issues on the agenda were considered.

First of all, the approval of the composition of the district election commissions for holding elections of deputies to the regional Council of People’s Deputies was discussed. As noted, this year, the processes of submission to the territorial election commission and approval of candidates for the district election commissions for holding elections to the Regional Council of People’s Deputies are carried out through the “E-Saylov” information system.

Citizens of the Republic of Uzbekistan who have reached the age of twenty-one, have secondary or higher education, and, as a rule, experience in preparing and holding elections, as well as enjoying the trust of the population, are nominated as candidates for the district election commission. When forming the commission’s composition, special attention was paid to ensuring the rights and opportunities of women and the participation of young people. The share of women among candidates for members of the district election commission in the region is 50 percent.

After that, the distribution of powers between the territorial election commission members was considered. The task was set to create a press center and organize its activities based on the principles of openness and transparency.

Relevant decisions were made on all issues on the agenda.
