 | The deaf struggle for rights |
The society of people with impaired hearing has asked the Mayor's office for assistance in resolving its problems. Chairman of the society Tahir Bagirov told vice-mayor Rauf Panahov Monday that members of the society had not received the 44 apartments, that the 5-hectare plot the society owns in the Nizami district of Baku had been appropriated by non-members. The society has also demanded that its 5 enterprises, currently at a standstill, restart work.
Deputy chairman of the Society Ali Maharramov told AssA-Irada Tuesday that vice-mayor pledged to look into the issues soon.
7,500 deaf people currently live in Azerbaijan, receiving disability allowance of AZM25,000 to 50,000.*
