    TARON MARGARYAN IS NOT GOING TO IMPLEMENT DEMANDS OF ACTIVISTS PICKETING YEREVAN MUNICIPALITY BUILDING

    It is unreasonable to dismiss the state officials at the request of
    several people, Mayor of Yerevan Taron Margaryan told Radio Azatutyun
    when commenting on the demands of the Let's Pay 100 AMD movement
    activists that have been picketing the Yerevan Municipality building
    for 11 days.

    "If an official works badly, he should be dismissed without waiting
    for the relevant request, but if he works well, he should not be
    dismissed only because one or two people demand that, especially as
    the wide public strata do not support this demand", said Margaryan.

    As regards the public transport fare rise, the mayor stressed that the
    fare will be raised following the relevant conclusion of the newly
    created commission, which is considering this issue. "If we want to
    have a normal transport system, if we want to have a transport system
    in general, we should raise the fare", he said.

    To note, the decision on the 50% rise in the public transport fare
    caused a wave of protest in Armenia, and Yerevan Mayor Taron Margaryan
    suspended his decision. However, the activists have not stopped their
    protests and now they demand resignation of some officials of the
    Municipality and cancellation of the mayor's decision.
