History
In 1944, after the genocide and deportation of the Chechen and Ingush people and the Chechen-Ingush ASSR was abolished, the village of Niki-Khita was renamed and settled by people from the neighboring republic of Dagestan.{{cite web |title=Потери вооруженных сил России и СССР в вооруженных конфликтах на Северном Кавказе (1920–2000 годы) |url=http://www.demoscope.ru/weekly/2005/0211/analit01.php |website=www.demoscope.ru}} From 1944 to 1957, it was a part of the Vedensky District of the Dagestan ASSR.
