Between now and the end of the year, localities within the city will continue to implement the health rehabilitation plan for revolutionary contributors and relatives of martyrs. Additionally, they will advise on the development of a resolution on specific policies to support allowances for the groups who are receiving monthly preferential subsidies from the city./.
