Today Ingushetia is a full-fledged subject of the Russian Federation. During the past four years it has been among top twenty regions in the country. It is the main result of the work by the authorities of the republic since its formation,’’ the head of Ingushetia, Yunus-Bek Yevkurov, said in an interview with ‘Vestnik Kavkaza’ ahead of the Republic Day .
On June 4, 1992, the Supreme Soviet of Russia adopted the law "On the Formation of the Ingush Republic as a part of the Russian Federation." This date is celebrated in the region as the Day of the Republic of Ingushetia.
According to Yunus-Bek Yevkurov, all stages of the 24-year development of Ingushetia were historic in their own way. "I would rather not single out one particular stage [of development] as they all played the key role. Both the presidential elections and the formation of the administration, the government, the parliament, and the adoption of various regional laws, and the strengthening of public institutions, and the construction of infrastructure facilities have been important for the republic,’’ he noted.
"The most important thing is that Ingushetia has established itself as a republic. It is a full-fledged region of Russia. During the last 4 years the republic has been among the top 20 regions of Russia. It is the most important result. We need to continue to build on our achievements,’’ the head of Inigushetia stressed.
The development of the republic will continue in many spheres. ‘‘We have plans to complete the federal target program of socio-economic development of the Republic of Ingushetia this year. Then, in 2017 we intend to launch a sub-program within the framework of the federal target development program of the North Caucasus Federal District, which is realized under the auspices of the Ministry of the North Caucasus,’’ he pointed out.
"And this year, we are planning to adopt a separate social development sub-program of the Republic of Ingushetia and improve it with the help of Russia and the Ministry of Caucasus in particular. Certainly, we will implement decrees and orders by the President and the Russian government. We will continue to work in the way we did before,’’ Yunus-Bek Yevkurov concluded.
