The source also said that rumors circulating on social media that Davron Hidoyatov had become mayor of the city of Tashkent and that the current mayor, Jahongir Artikhodjayev, had been promoted to one of the vacant positions in the government were refuted.

Currently, the Tashkent regional administration is preparing for a meeting of activists in the assembly hall. The meeting is expected to be attended by the head of the Presidential Administration Zaynilobiddin Nizomiddinov. Reportedly, at the meeting, Davron Hidoyatov will be relieved of his post and former governor of Kashkadarya region Zoyir Mirzayev will be appointed the new head of Tashkent region.

According to some sources, Hidoyatov may be appointed mayor of Chirchik, Tashkent region.

It should be recalled that the chairmanship of the State Committee for Ecology and Environmental Protection has been vacant since the dismissal of Alisher Maksudov on August 24.
