History
In 2013, Rakhima Ganieva was the first Miss World contestant to represent Uzbekistan. Her presence there was controversial.[1] She began taking part in Miss World 2013 for Uzbekistan. She claimed that the Miss Uzbekistan 2013 pageant was held on 20 July 2013 in Tashkent. Supposedly the contest included three levels: introduction in national costumes, catwalk in cocktail dresses and catwalk and interview in evening dresses. Officials at the Uzbek Culture and Sports Ministry and the National Committee on Women stated that the country never held a contest.[2]
