Deputy Nilufer Alimjanova asked how much the pollution levels have actually decreased. Deputy Minister of Emergency Situations Ernest Jusupov responded that pollution monitoring is conducted in Bishkek, Osh, Kara-Balta, Tokmok, and Cholpon-Ata using 14 stationary posts and one automatic station. In Bishkek, 50 automatic sensors have been installed to measure pollution levels.
