The government of Dagestan has held a special sitting dedicated to the problems with drinking water in the republic and convoked because of an increased number of complaints from the population on deficit or poor quality of the water they have to use.

According to her story, despite some improvements of water bacteriological quality in June against May, the sanitary-chemical condition remains poor, and contamination went up by 80 percent.

Representatives of the city administration and communal services, in their turn, named the problem of water deficit "invented" and accused journalists, in particular, of escalating the problem and "warming up the unnecessary agiotage around the issue."
