As a result, the pension of 352,000 citizens will be recalculated, and the average monthly pension will increase to 400,000 soums.

In particular, it is expected to increase the pensions of 304 thousand old-age pensioners, 25.2 thousand people with disabilities and 23 thousand people who have lost their breadwinners.
