In Bishkek, the city administration presented a draft resolution regarding the gratuitous transfer of the Alykul Osmonov Museum and the associated land plot into state ownership. The facility is located at: Sokuluksky Lane, 10.

This initiative arose from requests from the Culture Department of the city administration dated September 12, 2025, as well as from the Ministry of Culture, Information, and Youth Policy, which sent its letter on July 9, 2025.

The justification for the project states that the transfer of the museum to state ownership aims to create a centralized management system for museums related to the creativity and life of Alykul Osmonov. This will also help in popularizing the national cultural heritage and introducing the youth to historical values.

The balance sheet value of the museum is 125,450 soms. According to the city administration, the transfer of this facility will save 1,052,100 soms from the local budget.

According to Article 11 of the law "On Municipal Property," municipal property can be transferred to state ownership gratuitously, sold, privatized, or exchanged. At the same time, Article 10 of the same law requires the consent of the local kenesh for gratuitous transfer.
