Mayor of Ashgabat

Add article description

The mayor of Ashgabat (Turkmen: Häkim Aşgabat) is the head and the highest-ranking official of Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, who leads the Government of Ashgabat, the main executive body of the city.

Role

With the adoption of the current Constitution of Turkmenistan on May 18, 1992, the structure of local government was reformed for all towns and regions in Turkmenistan. Article 80 of the constitution specified the role of häkim (mayor, lit. 'governor') as the holder of executive power for towns, replacing the previously used council system and its position of chairman.[1][2] As a result, Batyr Sarjayev, the Chairman of the Ashgabat City Council at the time of adoption, became the first Mayor of Ashgabat. As Ashgabat is both a city and a region of Turkmenistan, the mayor is also called the Governor of Ashgabat.[2]
