YEREVAN. – The Government of Armenia made a decision today to increase the state budget revenues and expenditures related to subsidy programs by 600 million drams.

Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure Suren Papikyan noted that 483 subsidy programs were approved this year.

For his part, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said this is a good opportunity for them to go without initial planning and see how these programs were implemented.

"There is a political conclusion that the quality and volume of these works in enlarged communities is on another different level," the Prime Minister said. "I will go on unplanned visits and find out what was done with the subsidy programs."
