THE ROAD TO SCHOOL
Support A1+!The pupils and teachers of village Poqr Ayrum have to walk a long way every day in order toe reach school. The problem is that Mets Ayrum and Poqr Ayrum are considered one village, as they have one district municipality, one school, one kindergarten and one hospital which are all located in Mets Ayrum. But the distance between the villages is three kilometers.
The greatest problem of the village is the absence of transport. There is only one railway, Alaverdi-Chochkan, which passes by Poqr Ayrum. But the morning bass passes through the route Chochkan- Mets Ayrum- Poqr Ayrum. This problem has existed for the last 5-6 years.
The issue has often been raised during the elections of local governing bodies. Head of the village Papik Aroushanyan who was elected in 2006 promised to solve the problem as soon as possible.
He made an agreement with a driver of a route taxi. The village municipality allotted 30 thousand AMD monthly. For that sum, the teachers and pupils of Poqr Ayrum are allotted a route taxi every morning in order to get to school. Nevertheless, in the afternoon they have to solve the problem of getting home on their own.
