The work on the first stage of the project implemented to improve drinking water supply and eliminate water losses in the villages of Hajigabul region had been completed.

 Within the framework of the project implemented at the expense of internal resources, villages were provided with a new connection from the 163rd kilometer of the Oguz-Gabala-Baku transmission main, 2.4 km of main and 11 km of distribution water lines were built.
