Today at the Roses square the minibus drivers protest action was held. The drivers are protesting the tender results announced by City Hall. The drivers are supported at the protest action by Conservative Party representatives, Free Georgia, Georgian Party People's Party Public Gathering, Free Democrats, Solidarity for Prisoners of conscience, Refugees Civil Movement and other political organizations and NGOs.
Lasha Chkhartishvili, Conservative Party member said to GHN the government has to abolish the tender results, as the monopolization of this area by the government is evident.
"The government performs a persecution of the middle layer of society. From the summer period, they persecuted outside traders, now the minibus driers are at the target point. Government tries to get all kind of business. They are getting many million Lary from such businesses; this is an elite corruption, "- Chkhartishvili said.
He said the winner company head in this tender is a classmate of Mikhal Sakashvili. We have information that he, Shargania is a co-owner of Beeline cell phone Company in Georgia. The protest actions will continue, as the winner company now will impose payment instead of 10 GEL - 40 GEL per day from drivers.
