An activist from Dagognei declared the road repairs a show for the primaries.

New asphalt in Dagogni was dug up again a week later to lay sewer pipes. This work is being done for the sake of reporting for the primaries, stated activist Ramis Agabekov.

As reported by Kavkazsky Uzel, an activist from Dagogni alleged that school and hospital employees are being coerced into participating in the United Russia primaries in the interests of specific candidates.

A video of Dagogni activist Ramis Agabekov's complaint was published by the Telegram channel Mash Gor, which has over 44,000 subscribers. By 6:30 PM, the post had garnered over two thousand views.

"They laid asphalt on Kalinina Street a week ago, and now look at this! They're removing the asphalt and installing sewer pipes, which they've been planning for three years now. What is this called?" Ramis Agabekov complained.

According to the activist, when they laid the asphalt, the administration failed to take into account plans to replace the sewer pipes. "They did this during the primaries to show off, to demonstrate: 'We're laying asphalt, vote for us,'" he says in the video.

Residents of Kalinin Avenue, in turn, said that no one remembered about the pipes during street repairs. The city administration was unable to explain these decisions: officials suggested that some of the work was left unfinished or that technical difficulties arose. "Vodokanal declined to comment, only stating that they were opening up the road because it had to be done," the company's press service reported on its Telegram channel.

"Caucasian Knot" also reported that in 2024, residents of Dagognei recorded a video message to the head of the republic, Sergei Melikov, demanding his intervention in the situation with sewer pipe replacement, as some streets were flooded after the work. The authorities then placed the blame on the contractor, stating that the contract with him had been terminated.
