The President signed the law "On Amendments and Additions to the Law of the Republic of Uzbekistan "On Names of Geographical Objects."  This was reported on the "Legal Information" Telegram channel.

It is noted that geographical objects are allowed to be named after people who left a deep mark on world history.

The names of people who have left a deep mark on the history of Uzbekistan or the world are given after their death.  This is based on the decision of the President and, as a rule, about the components of settlements that do not have names.

According to the law, the opinion of the local population is taken into account in the process of preparing proposals for naming geographical objects and changing their names.

Also, after receiving proposals, they will be published by relevant bodies in their official publications, websites, and mass media for discussion within 5 working days.

The discussion of proposals should not be less than 15 days from the date of their publication.
