On May 4, 2021, Aktilek Tungatarov took part in a meeting of Prime Minister of the Kyrgyz Republic Ulukbek Мaripov (now Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic) with Kyrgyz entrepreneurs on the issue of restoring the affected villages of the Batken region after the border conflict with Tajikistan.

The business community expressed a desire to support the affected citizens. In particular, construction companies are ready to undertake the construction and reconstruction of destroyed houses. 136 houses have been completely destroyed and cannot be repaired, i.e. they will be built from the ground up.

In total, 700 million soms were allocated from the state budget for the restoration. 500 million soms of this amount will be spent on the reconstruction of social facilities and the construction of roads to the affected villages. The remaining 200 million soms will go to the construction of destroyed housing. If the business community provides support, the saved amount will be used to establish the infrastructure of the settlements.
