ARAM SARGSSYAN HELD A ROUND-TABLE DISCUSSION
Support A1+!The principle “those who don’t pay, won’t be given water” , worked out by Gagik Martirossyan, Chair of State Water Committee at Government, academicians Hovhanness Fahradyan and Mickael Julkhayan labelled as anti-state activity yesterday. Aram Sargssyan, Democratic Party Chair, had invited them to round-table-discussion to become aware of the standpoints of the specialists regarding the village problems.
Academicians substantiated their statements with concrete examples and it will be too naive to believe all the assertions by Authorities regarding agriculture development after them. Only 40 of plots of land. After Soviet Union collapse Armenia is the first country to divide its plots of land into agriculture.
A villager is able to provide only his family with natural products. The situation becomes more unbearable in lack of water. According to specialists, Water Economy is to abandon its “ iron principles” in case of the issue on irrigation water supply. Academicians say it is of no moral to deprive the insolvent population of the chance to work their land.
Suggestions were made after discussion: “State is to support agriculture development, intensive technologies must be used, villagers must be given credits, seeds, fertilisers. Villagers are to be released from tax and to be provided with irrigation water .
Democratic Party leader, candidate for presidency Aram Sargssyan promised the discussion participants to take into consideration all the proposals of them and to enter them in his pre-election program. The program of Democratic Party will be released within the next week.
