APA reports quoting AZERTAC that the head of state first met the district's general public.

Jalilabad residents Bakhish Mustafayev, Lyubov Danilova, and Boyukkhan Bagirli thanked the head of state for his attention and care to the development of the district.

Then photographs were taken.

President Ilham Aliyev cut the ribbon symbolizing the opening of the highway, whose construction started in 2014.

The highway will ensure safety and comfort of the residents of the villages, and will contribute considerably to the development of these villages.

It was noted that under President Ilham Aliyev's order signed in 2013, AZN 2mln was initially allocated from the President's Contingency Fund for the construction of the highway. Last year the head of state signed an order allocating AZN 7mln from the state budget for the construction.

The highway, which is 21 km in length and 8 meters in width, links 6 residential areas with the total population of more than 23,000 people.
