A working trip of President Emomali Rahmon to the northern province of Sughd is going on.

According to the Tajik president’s official website, Rahmon yesterday attended an official opening ceremony of the first stage of the Dehmoi water supply line.  This line provides more than 15,000 resident of the city of Khujand with safe drinking water.
