On March 15, a caravan of cars loaded with food for 4,200 low-income families living in the regions of the Republic, including families of martyrs and veterans, was sent off by the Confederation of Trade Unions of Azerbaijan (ATUC) on the occasion of the upcoming Novruz holiday.
In addition, 1,200 families of the same category living in the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic were given holiday gifts the other day.
Industry trade unions and their local organizations also provide food assistance to families of the category we mentioned in all regions.
It should be noted that the number of families provided assistance by ATUC and its member organizations since 2020 has exceeded 120 thousand.
ATUC chairman, MP Sattar Mohbaliyev, who attended the farewell ceremony, told reporters that trade unions always treat vulnerable population groups with care, carry out various measures to meet their social needs on all holidays and other significant days, including gifts and gifts: “this has become a tradition in our country. Novruz, the oldest holiday of our people, is coming. The spring holiday, which brings joy and joy with its arrival, is celebrated with good mood and great pomp in every corner of our independent, sovereign and happy Homeland. The joy of our glorious victory in recent years has made Novruza even fresher. “The day will be the day when we will spend Novruz holiday once in Shusha, the other year in Lachin, the other year in Kalbajar, Agdam, Fuzuli, Jabrayil, Zangilan, Gubadli”, voiced by the great leader with great foresight, is already real today. Festive bonfires are kindled in Eastern Zangezur and Karabakh, cleared of the enemy, and residents celebrate in their homes, in newly built houses for them. Of course, we cannot forget our martyrs who gave us this victory, we must always support their families. Among the families we send gifts, there are also families of martyrs. Of course, our state fully supports them and meets all their concerns. As trade unions, we also try to congratulate their holiday and decorate their tables. This is the duty of each of us.”
“I would like to note the activity of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation in this field, which is an example for every public organization and person. Social support programs implemented under the special patronage of the president of the foundation Mehriban Aliyeva, along with meeting with great approval in society, reduce people’s concerns and improve their well-being. The noble missions of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation and its assistance to the solution of social problems of our citizen have further raised the National Trust in Mrs. Mehriban Aliyeva. Today, the Foundation is closely involved in the restoration of Karabakh and East Zangazur, supporting our state in this work, and we are confident that this honorable mission of Mrs Mehriban Aliyeva will be successfully completed,” Sattar Mohbaliyev said in an interview.
