Today the residents of Northern and Main Avenues, Koghbatsi and
Firdusi Streets, Kozern district as well as gardeners of Dalma
and Nork organized a rally opposite the President’s residence and
National Assembly.
They tried to meet NA deputies, to talk to them and to share their
concerns with them. This time reason for their concern was the bill on
"Property alienation for state and public needs" which was endorsed
after the 1st hearing. The rally participants claim that before
the second hearing RA Justice Minister David Haroutyunyan made a new
amendment to it. As a result the law will have a reverse outcome. "This
is another breech of RA Constitution and Human Rights Convention.
It gives an opportunity to the high-rank officials to find ways to
hide the money they have taken from us illegally," maintains Vachagan
Hakobyan.
The strikers managed to talk to Alvard Petrosyan and Spartak Seiranyan,
deputies of Dashnaktsutyun party and the deputies promised to do
their best to turn down the bill. They also met NA deputies Viktor
Dallakyan, Vardan Lazarian and Razmik Martirosyan who also promised
to vote against the bill.
At present the rally participants are at the entrance of the National
Assembly where the bill is put to voting.
