Once again public transport is banned to take people from the regions
to the capital. In the morning the bus-stops of Abovyan were crowded,
but there was no transport to serve the people. Even taxis could
hardly be met.
The reason for the "emergency" state is the opposition rally, "against"
which the authorities have banned the public transport for a day.
"Every time we face one and the same situation. I have to go to the
tax inspectorate to hand in the monthly account. I am going to be
fined in case it is late. And I have no extra money for taking a taxi
to Yerevan," complained Silva. "The authorities can achieve nothing by
closing the roads. The problem should be given a fundamental solution,"
advised Gnel.
Reminder: the rally organized by the All Armenian Movement will take
place in the Matenadaran square at 7 p.m., today. It will be followed
by a march.
