The village Gishi having passed a stable development during the Soviet
years today is one of the prospering communities of the Republic as
well, and the major part of its own problems settles itself. During the
last year, restoration works were implemented in the village, this was
mentioned about by Gevorg Balayan, the community head, in his account
on the works implemented in the village in 2008. During the accounting
meeting, which was participated by the NKR Prime Minister Ara
Haroutyunyan, the tasks for this year were also discussed.

During the hard years of war and post-war period the village roads and
units of vital importance were disregarded, the villager only thought
of cultivation of the privatized lands and satisfaction of the family
needs. Today, when the works have been regulated to some extent by
state support and develop in natural way, inhabitants of Gishi settle
down to restoring and preserving their property. There is a medical
post, a ceremony house, a community administration building and an
operating club in the village. This year a new school and a nursery
school for 127 children under school age will be built by the state
programme.

During the accounting year, from 765 hectares of arable land 595
hectares instead of the 268 hectares of the previous year were
cultivated. The considerable part of autumn sowing works were carried
out on the privatized lands. The support provided by the Government
facilitates the villagers’ work. Nobody quitted the village during the
years of war, today as well inhabitants of Gishi do not think of work
abroad, they develop their native land through overcoming the
difficulties. There is a large perspective here, the villagers speak
more of achievements, the village had 1385 inhabitants, in 2008, 25
children were born and 26 families were founded in Gishi. A section of
the Karmir Shouka – Martouni road being under reconstruction passes
through the village, and will contribute to the prosperity of the
community. The internal water system is liable to reconstruction. The
sore subject of the community is the irrigation system. Inhabitants of
Gishi anticipate the state support in settling the problem.
Disagreements arose in concern with the problem of providing the
regional administration centre of Martouni with drinking and irrigating
water from the water supplies of Qahriz, because the inhabitants of
Gishi were deprived of irrigating water. The problem requires a
mutually beneficial settlement. As a result of discussions carried on
round the proposals of the Prime Minister, the head of the regional
administration and the villagers a mutual agreement was reached. During
the three months of the irrigation season people of Gishi will make use
of the water, and the citizens of Martouni will be provided with water
from the artesian wells.

The questions of the inhabitants of Gishi directed to the Head of the
Government were not only of communal character: they are troubled by
the absence of a refrigerated slotter-house in the Republic, by the
opportunity of getting village machinery and by other issues. The
question concerning the villagers’ seniority raised by Rafael
Hairapetyan, teacher of the Russian language and literature, causes an
overall anxiety.
