An event devoted to President’s Day was held on November 15 at the Ministry of Health and Social Protection of the Population of Tajikistan.
While opening the event, the First Deputy Minister of Health and Social Protection of the Population of Tajikistan Saida Umarzoda congratulated participants with this day.
“The Leader of the Nation Emomali Rahmon is recognized in the international arena as a peacemaker, a collector of the nation, an implementer of promising works for the development, prosperity and improvement of the Motherland, the creator of favorable conditions for the people, and the initiator of solving global problems, and in my opinion there is no need to confirm and prove these words, because as they say: “There is no need to explain what is obvious,” added Saida Umarzoda.
November 16 in the Law of the Republic of Tajikistan “On Holidays” is defined as President’s Day.
The office of the President is a constitutional provision, and the Constitution of Tajikistan defines the procedure and conditions for the election of this highest position of state power and the time of assuming the office of the President.
In particular, Article 67 of the Constitution provides that the President takes the oath in a joint meeting of Majlisi Milli (National Assembly or Upper House) and Majlisi Namoyandagon (Assembly of Representatives or Lower House) of Majlisi Oli (Supreme Assembly or Parliament).
As is known from history, Emomali Rahmon take the oath and began his activity as the President on November 16, 1994, at the session of the Supreme Council of Tajikistan.
The purpose of celebrating November 16 as President’s Day is that from the very beginning, on this fateful and defining day of further successful development of Tajikistan, a new important state stage, that is, in accordance with the Constitution of a sovereign state, the presidential management was started in Tajikistan and the newly elected President took his office.
It was noted that considering the outstanding merits of President Emomali Rahmon, November 16 was declared as the President’s Day in the country’s legislation.
It was also noted that President Emomali Rahmon is a wise and intelligent person who saved Tajikistan from destruction and rallied the Tajik people around him.

Following the event, it was emphasized that in order to implement the creative policy of the Leader of the Nation, every Tajik citizen, regardless of his profession or position, should make every effort.
In today’s rapid process of globalization, we, the Tajik people, must gather more and more around the Head of State in order to maintain peace, unity and tranquility in our beloved country. Because only friendship and unity of the people can save any nation and state from collapse in this era of globalization.
Our unity is our strength!
