Tengrinews.kz - A ban on the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages may be introduced in one of Kazakhstan's cities.

This became known during the discussion in the Mazhilis of the bill on the special status of the city of Turkestan.

Mazhilis deputy Ardak Nazarov asked whether it would be possible to prohibit alcohol in Turkestan, as the city is recognized as the spiritual capital.

"As part of this law, if we prohibited drinking alcohol, selling it, or walking the streets in a drunken state in Turkestan... After all, Turkestan is the spiritual capital, and all Kazakhs should draw their spirituality here. Our ancestors, saints, and beys are buried here. Tomorrow, many guests from abroad will arrive, and if our people greet them while intoxicated, it will be a disgrace. Therefore, as part of this law, is it possible to ban alcohol and declare Turkestan a city without alcohol?" - the deputy asked the representatives of the Turkestan Akimat.

The deputy akim of Turkestan Region, Beisembay Tazhibaev, responded that the "Alcohol-Free Village" project had already been implemented in the region.

"Now other regions are also getting involved. This initiative was supported by the elders, and there were discussions in various formats. (...) Of course, Turkestan is also a city for tourists, attractive to tourists. Many opinions arise on this issue. This issue is relevant and timely. And it will be considered within the framework of legislative norms," the deputy akim replied.
