Since last year, the Nauryz festivities have been held under the name “Nauryznama” and last for ten days. At our university, this ten-day celebration, dedicated to its 85th anniversary, begins with Korisu Day. I wish you all good health and well-being. May we continue to meet in peace and joy year after year, holiday after holiday,” said University Rector Salamat Idrissov in his welcome speech.
