With the same purpose, the government will also allocate 89,021.9 thousand drams as additional pension to pensioners.
Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan stated that this will entirely cover the compensation for vulnerable levels of society after the gas price increase in May.
The government has increased the subsidies for 104,000 families and pensioners will receive higher pensions starting on November 1.
