The fares are artificially increased by 50% to 70%. Passengers are advised that tickets for March 18-23 have already sold out.
Deputy Minister of Transport Musa Panahov told APA-Economics that instructions have been given to relevant structures in order to avoid problems on the eve of the holiday.
He added that additional buses will be involved and additional carriages will be coupled to trains.
“It is illegal to increase the regular fare. We will take measure to prevent such cases,” he added.
He also noted that security will be tightened during the holiday.
