History

From the opening, the station was called Friendship of Peoples ( Uzbek: Xalqlar Doʻstligi). On 6 August 2008, the Xalqalr Doʻstligi metro station was renamed into Bunyodkor. On 26 April 2018, at a video conference, the President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev proposed to return the previous name. The Tashkent City Kengash of People's Deputies at the 36th session on 3 May 2018 approved the return of the name "Xalqalr Doʻstligi" to the Bunyodkor metro station. [2]
