Group of Earthquake Victims Held Protest

16.12.2005, “Media News” – A group of earthquake victims held a protest in front of the Tbilisi Municipality today. They protested against the municipality’s budget of 2006 and demanded a meeting with the Tbilisi Mayor Gigi Ugulava.

The opposition fraction “New Righters” and NGOs also joined the protest.

“The government has forgotten about the problem of dilapidated houses. Twenty-five percent of Tbilisi’s population lives in dangerous buildings and in constant fear. Not a thetri in the budget is set aside for renovation” – said George Mosidze, the leader of “New Righters”.
