Symbol of the Democratic Party "Milliy Tiklanish"
[edit]
The description of the symbol of the Democratic Party “Milliy Tiklanish” is as follows:
The green crescent is a reference to our sacred values and our fertile land.
Blue Earth is a symbol of the honest and pure spirit of our people.
The Simurgh bird is a symbol of prosperity and recovery, taken from Alisher Navoi's work "Lison ut-Tair", and calls for unity towards a common goal, even if thoughts and ideas are different.
Navoi points out that Simurgh (thirty birds in Persian) is their state of union, when thirty ruined birds go to different parts of the world in search of Simurgh, the bird of prosperity, but do not seek him.
The party symbol expresses the goals of uniting our honest and tolerant people towards a common goal in the blessed land of Uzbekistan, based on national and universal values.
History
[edit]
The party was formed in 1995 with a largely intellectual membership and has a comparatively high proportion of female members.[4] The party advocates a strong sense of Uzbek culture, desiring a cultural revival, whilst also seeking to build closer links with other states in Central Asia.[5] The party opposes the influence of Russia in the region and attacked the foundation of the Eurasian Economic Community on this basis.[6]
The party announced its intention to merge with the Self-Sacrifice National Democratic Party in 2008, as the two parties shared common goals.[7] The new group has retained the National Revival Democratic Party name.[8]
Electoral history
[edit]In the 2004–05 Uzbek parliamentary election, the party won 11 out of 120 seats. The party's candidate for the 2007 Uzbek presidential election was Hurshid Dustmuhammad.[9]
Party newspaper
[edit]The Milliy Tiklanish newspaper is a socio-political publication of the Milliy Tiklanish democratic party.

That is, through the central publication of the party, it widely propagates its ideas, goals and objectives, and acquaints the public with the work being carried out in this direction.
Based on the reforms of the “New Uzbekistan”, the demands and proposals of newspaper owners, the Milliy Tiklanish newspaper has radically changed both in content and in form.
