On October 12, the AiF Dagestan publication reported that Makhachkala's public transport was planned to be subjected to reforms. For these purposes, a working group is created, which will be led by Deputy Prime Minister Dagestan Rizwan Gazimagomedov. What is this: Makhachkale's help in solving pressing problems or the announcement of the new mayor of the capital of Dagestan?

The working group, created by order of October 11, 2022 (457-r) of the acting chairman of the government of the Republic of Dagestan Ruslan Aliyev , will be engaged in the preparation and implementation of the draft complex reform of public transport of the Makhachkala agglomeration. What exactly is this reform and what will be expressed in is still unknown.

In addition to Rizvan Gazimagomedov, the working group included the head of the Ministry of Transport of the Republic of Dagestan Dzhambulat Salavs and a number of his subordinates, representatives of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Republic of Dagestan, the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Dagestan, the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Dagestan, as well as representatives of the Makhachkala administration, including the mayor of Makhachkala Salman Dadaev .

It should be noted that the formation of a working group under the chairmanship of Gazimagomedov is perceived not only as a lively response to one of the most relevant and criticizing the population of Makhachkala problems.

(Chernivik writes about problems in the transport sector of Makhachkala “Chernivik” regularly and regularly states that the problems are not resolved: creating artificial shortages of route buses, the lack of an effective alternative, incomprehensible pricing and incomprehensible way of drivers' salary, etc. One of the similar articles, No. 2 of 21.01.2022 - “CC” )

The auditory environment presents the activity of Rizvan Gazimagomedov, as well as his mention in the media in such a business context as a certain stage, which he must overcome along the path to the position of the head of Makhachkala.

Some especially bold newsmakers claim that within the next month or two, the current mayor of Makhachkala Salman Dadaev will leave his post, and the “politician with engineering thinking”, as the press of Gazimagomedov in the past will replace it. In favor of this version, as a weakening of Dadaev’s positions, a rumor is also presented about the temporary removal from the work of one of the deputy heads of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation for the Republic of Dagestan - Dzhamaludin Dzhamaludinov .

Therefore, the immersion of Gazimagomedov in the problems of public transport Makhachkala is perceived as ... the transfer of cases.

Precedent

In the modern history of Dagestan, there are already precedents of this. So, in 2015, the Minister of Construction, Architecture and Housing and Public Utilities of the Republic of Dagestan Musaev spoke at one of the meetings of the National Assembly of Dagestan . He quite fiercely criticized the power of Makhachkala for the fact that they do not comply with urban planning legislation, allocate lands for construction arbitrarily, not taking into account their purpose, and also do not have a general plan!

Then Musaev was indignant that 447 apartment buildings were being built in Makhachkala, of which 148 - without permits, that he, as a minister, receive numerous complaints and so on ...

His indignation Makhachkala was for a reason: then between the head of the Republic of Dagestan Ramazan Abdulatipov and the mayor of Makhachkala Magomed Suleimanov was a serious tension. The first demanded from the second to leave his post and give Makhachkala to the hands that he would indicate. Suleimanova did not suit this.

The leadership of Dagestan at that time decided that Musaev could become the best mayor of all candidates.

Political pressure, on the one hand, is a demonstration of the “sins” of the then mayor, on the other hand, possibly with criminal law consequences, did their job: Musa Musaev headed Makhachkala ... And, judging by the official reports of ministries and departments, he safely forgot about the very 447 apartment buildings that were built with violations and shortcomings ...

"Do not wait!"

The confrontation of the head of Dagestan and the head of Makhachkala is a traditional phenomenon for our republic. And this is a confrontation, if it does not acquire painful forms, you can only ... encourage!

The mayors, as practice shows, when the head of the republic finds faults, they begin to work better. So - a responsible mayor - tried to be Musa Musaev; Realizing that claims will be hyperbolized, he tries not to give a reason and Salman Dadaev. It turns out badly, but ...

The confrontation of Melikov and Dadaev raised questions in society and the media. Salman Dadaev at the end of January this year gave an answer to the question whether he would leave or not. As the publication “Youth of Dagestan” wrote then, the mayor of Makhachkala said: “Do not wait!”

Salman Dadaev : “I will stop annoying you with my face with my hairstyle and cultural glasses that are non -standard for Dagestan in 2024, on the last day of January, when my term of office expires. Before that, I have a painted program for the development of Makhachkala, and there are still many unrealized points. But the basis and the beginning are already laid. I didn’t just collect MBU Makhachkala-1 by bit, the park of equipment, the management of architecture. We reformat the management of culture to make things that are unusual for us. I completely seize the UZHK again. I have a lot of plans.

Do you know what is the hardest for Makhachkala? The fact that in five years six managers have changed. And these brushes led to the fact that many processes began, broke off, the old ones were destroyed, the new ones were not begun. When I came, it was very difficult for me to watch what was happening in the administration. The response to the residents was not written out until the inhabitants are interested in the one who issues it. Neither the leader, nor the deputy, nor the office signed. Everyone just came and sat every morning, waited-what will happen today, where something will fall from from today. And without this, no one was going to do anything. Something begins to work out. Now get up and leave, I'm not ready. ”

PS The position of mayor of Makhachkala as a person affecting one of the major cities of Russia, where a million people live in fact. This is not only the control of land, financial, industrial and other resources. Not only paper circulation control, pressure on business or, conversely, creating favorable conditions for it, taxation and supply issues. This is still a political influence on those who live in Makhachkala, and those who are at least somehow in contact with this city. The capital of Dagestan.

To influence all this economy means (depending on the courage and efficiency) to be in positions almost equal to the head of Dagestan. And this “almost” always causes latent conflicts and, less often, conflicts are open. It is impossible to avoid conflict in the current system of political relations, when both the head of the Republic of Dagestan and the head of the city, in fact, are appointed from one office. Each leader at these source, wants to total control all the levels of power below, each mayor, each head of the district or village.

For what? "And so that it was!" So that it could be redistributed once by public (and somewhere state) benefits at their discretion. After all, it can always be said that your colleague, it turns out, is an effective manager in the field of garbage processing, and the friend’s extremely close is a successful entrepreneur ...

In turn, everyone who became the mayor or head of the district (or continues to remain so) thinks more about how ... continue to do what the predecessors did: to allow to build where it is not necessary, but I want to; have a practically monopoly right to carry people along the roads of Makhachkala as it is convenient for the carrier, and not to the consumer of services; help to develop business to those who are close to you, and not everyone ...

Not only Makhachkala has these “sores”, all of Dagestan has them. But no one is in a hurry to treat them. Perhaps the treatment of these diseases is unprofitable. Perhaps the cure for them causes some unbearable pain to the patient (representatives of the authorities). Or makes you follow a hard diet in the future.

But in any situation, the inhabitants of Makhachkala and those who love this city are forced to realize one thing: from their desire and will, power in the capital of Dagestan does not change. Makhachkalinets does not affect power. So, he remains in voluntary hostages for those who have imagined themselves to be an effective manager-manager or great statesman ...] § [

With the new mayor? Or early?
