Nazran district

The Nazran District was established in 1924 as part of the Ingush Autonomous Region. Being part of the North Ossetian ASSR in 1944-1957, it had another name - Kosta-Khetagur. And after the collapse of the Chechen-Ingush ASSR in 1991-1992, it became part of Ingushetia. It received municipal status only in 2009. It is now divided into two parts due to the configuration of the territory. The district is located in the central and western parts of the republic and borders from the north with the Malgobek district, from the east - with the Sunzha, from the south and west - with the Republic of North Ossetia - Alania. About 100,000 people live on the territory of the district, including internally displaced persons from the RNO-Alania numbering 1,336 people, as well as internally displaced persons from the Chechen Republic - only 368 people. On the territory of the district flow rivers Sunzha, Surkhohi and Nazranka. Also an important water body of the area is the Alkhanchurt Canal. In Nazran district there are 30 educational institutions, including secondary, general and primary schools, as well as 1 hospital-stationary for 35 beds and 10 outpatient clinics. The region has developed agriculture: there are 8 state unitary enterprises, two agricultural cooperatives and 268 farms. There are 8,190 hectares of arable land on the balance sheet.

“The world's first interactive traveling exhibition “Victory Train” will arrive in Ingushetia.

On March 5 and 6, residents of the republic will have a unique opportunity to visit the exhibition dedicated to the events of the Great Patriotic War. The exhibition “Victory Train” will be located at the railway station of Nazran, and everyone will be able to see it free of charge by completing the mandatory Internet registration on the project's website.

The peculiarity of the exhibition is that it is presented in the format of a museum on wheels, consisting of 10 thematic cars, each of which is dedicated to important events and milestones of the Great Patriotic War. This is a rare opportunity for the residents of Ingushetia to become participants in one of the most significant historical projects, which immerses them in the atmosphere of 1941-1945 and makes them feel the spirit of the defenders of the Motherland, among whom there were many natives of our republic,” said Mahmud-Ali Kalimatov, Head of the Republic of Ingushetia.
