history

The place goes back to a post office that was built there in 1909 and named after a local toponym as Chebda. As part of the administrative reorganization of the Dagestani ASSR founded in 1921, a canton was formed in the area on November 22, 1928, with its seat in the village of Urada 7 km to the south and converted into a Rajon in 1929. On September 26, 1932, his seat was moved to the village of Kachib , 5 km to the east, higher up in the mountains, and the Rajon was renamed accordingly. On September 14, 1960, the Rajon received the name Sowetski rajon, and its seat was moved to the place that has now developed around the post office, which now also received the name Sowetskoje ; 1960 is the official founding year of the town. Since 1994, place - according to the original name - and Rajon - after Imam Shamil - have had their current names.
