The visit of the President of the Kyrgyz Republic, Sadyr Japarov, was a bright moment of the celebration, inspiring great enthusiasm among the local residents. The opening of the festive events was accompanied by a theatrical performance symbolizing the merging of day and night. The participation of Umai Ene in the "alas" ritual and the blessing of Bakai Ata gave the celebration significant spiritual meaning.
In his speech, the Head of State emphasized the strategic importance of the Naryn region, which is located on the Great Silk Road. Sadyr Japarov noted that Naryn is a sacred land that has given the country outstanding figures – heroes, scholars, and statesmen who laid the foundations of Kyrgyzstan's independence.
A delegation from the Jusup Balasagyn Kyrgyz National University (KNU), headed by the rector, Professor Dogdurbek Chontoey, joined the festive celebrations. Representatives of this leading university witnessed the high spirit and enthusiasm of the local residents. It is worth noting that students from Naryn State University (NSU) actively participated in organizing events and the cultural program. NSU, according to the President's decree, is now part of the KNU structure.
As part of his working trip, the rector of KNU held a meeting with the staff of Naryn State University. The university leadership congratulated their colleagues on the holiday, presenting awards to distinguished employees and students.
