TAXI DRIVERS STAGE PROTESTS IN YEREVAN AND GYUMRI
18:46 | March 2,2015 | Social
A group of individual taxi drivers (not employed by companies)
gathered in front of the government building today protesting the
recently amended law on Licensing which envisages that individual taxi
drivers in Yerevan must pay AMD 12,000 a month to the state budget. A
parallel protest was being held in Armenia's second largest city of
Gyumri where taxi drivers are to pay AMD 8000 to the state budget.
The protesting drivers said they could hardly bare their abject needs
with the money they earn and cannot afford to pay so much money to
the state.
A delegation of five taxi drivers today was received by Artur
Arakelyan, Deputy Minister of Transport and Communications.
Details will be given later in the day.
