(KZN.RU, June 25, Ksenia Shvetsova). Today at the Business Monday, Ilsur Metshin, the Mayor of Kazan, congratulated Damir Fattakhov who previously held the post of deputy head of the Executive Committee on the appointment of the Minister of Youth of the RT. The head of the city wished D. Fattakhov success in his work and noted that professionalism, as well as extensive experience of work and communication with youth, would enable him to achieve significant results in his new position.
Let us remind you that Damir Fattakhov worked for 12 years at various positions in the Kazan Executive Committee. Starting his career as one of the youngest deputies of the Kazan City Duma, he soon became the head of the Committee for Children and Youth Affairs, and then the head of the Kirovsky and Moskovsky districts’ administration, reminded I. Metshin. He noted that these areas were the most difficult front of work by the number of dilapidated housing, industrial enterprises, and representatives of a large business for the 29-year-old head.
I. Metshin added that D. Fattakhov's considerable experience in communicating with young people, including during the period of participation in the games of KVN played a significant role in his appointment. “This is the way that should be, through which you need to go. The Minister of Youth should be a young and creative employee”, said I. Meshin. He also thanked the President of the RT for the trust, noting that Kazan is still the main forge of cadres for the most important posts in Tatarstan.
Despite its thousand-year age, Kazan remains one of the youngest capitals of the subjects of Russia in terms of the number of young people and students. The head of the new department will continue to work for the benefit of his native city, said I. Metshin.
D. Fattakhov thanked his colleagues for their joint work. “One really appreciates something when one partakes with it. I worked in a strong team of true professionals, and I am grateful to everyone”, said D. Fattakhov and addressed to Mayor with the words of gratitude. “You are more than a leader, you are my teacher, a mentor, a senior companion. Thank you for believing in me, entrusting serious work, large-scale city projects. Thanks to your example, one of the basic principles for me was to listen and hear people for the benefit of which we are working”.
The Mayor wished success to Damir Fattakhov in his new position and awarded him with the badge of distinction “For Labor and Valor for the Benefit of Kazan”.
