"THERE SHOULD BE A PROPER ROAD TO TAKE THE BRIDE HOME, SHOULDN'T THERE?"

No gas, no water, no proper road, no medical post... when asked about
the problems of the village the inhabitants of Ghouze Jartar do not
forget this line of "no"s. And these complaints seem quite appropriate
as in neighbouring Gyune Jartar which is at a distance of 1 km there
is both gas and water and the state of the roads here is much better
than in the former village.
It seems as if we don't live in the 21st century. It is not a proper
way of living. We don't even have water; the only thing we have is the
"Mote" spring that serves us all year round and from where we carry
bucketfuls of water home. We use the spring water for washing, for
irrigating the vegetable garden and for household affairs and when
in summer it slows down we do not know what to do," says inhabitant
of Ghouze Jartar Zelita who, like her fellow villagers, has to pass
4 kilometers on foot to get to Gyune Jartar for shopping as there
is no shop in their village. This is, of course, when the weather
conditions are good.
As Mrs. Zelita says on some rainy days not only the cars cannot enter
the village because of the poor state of the roads but the people
also can't go out of the village.
There is no medical post in the village to provide the first medical
aid to the villagers when needed. "4 days ago I felt bad, my blood
pressure rose, I thought I would die before the arrival of the
ambulance from Gyune Jartar. Taxi drivers take us to the mentioned
village for 3 thousand drams. I often feel bad. How should I pay this
money, I am an invalid's mother," she says angrily.
There are a lot of other problems in the village but according to my
interlocutors the most urgent one of them is the state of the roads
which has been becoming worse day by day for many years.
"There are quite a lot of young people in the village but most of
them go to Stepanakert to find a job as there is none here, that is
why most of them do not hurry to marry," a 55-year-old woman from
the village expresses her opinion.
The reason for his being unmarried a 25-year-old young man from the
village again finds in the poor state of the roads, "There should be
a proper road to take the bride home, shouldn't there?"
