YEREVAN.- A group of young people gathered near the Yerevan city hall
on Friday to protest against rise in subway fares.

The protestors handed in a letter to the Yerevan Mayor, one of the
participants told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

In a letter they asked to review subway fare as increase will not
contribute to the improvement of underground.

Under the decision of Yerevan Mayor, fares on underground will increase
twice reaching AMD 100 ($ 0.27) against AMD 50 from July 1.
