Marzaganov Ruslan, founder of Albi Technoparks, member of the Committee of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation in the field of construction, scientist and specialist in the field of scientific restoration, met with the head of the Committee for State Protection of Cultural Heritage Sites of Ingushetia Kodzoev Timerlan Umarovich, as well as Acting Director of the Jeirakh-Assin Museum-Reserve Sampiev Akhmedkhan Alikhanovich and took the initiative to preserve the temple "Albi-Yerda" from destruction by tourists, local residents, livestock, etc.

The temple - the sanctuary of "Albi-Yerda", more than 1000 years old, is located on the left bank of the river "Assa", from which, according to historians, more than a quarter of the entire Ingush genus originated. After the approval of the project, a metal fence will be erected around the historical object, with a total length of about 200 meters. This measure, as well as the installation of a video recording system of violations, will prevent the destruction of the temple and will initiate restoration work.

These measures are taken to protect and preserve the object of cultural heritage of the Republic of Ingushetia.
