Dear Editor,
The strong demonetisation action by the government is a brilliant move. It was long due. Real estate was thriving on cash transactions, and so was the unorganised sector. Government officials earning less than Rs 40,000 a month, owned luxury cars and mansions. An honest man had been isolated. Corruption and black money had become so rampant that a man’s status and authority was viewed from the money and muscle power he wielded. The government must now implement Modi’s economical surgical strike ruthlessly. Let the economy grow and ensure financial inclusion to all. It would also give a blow to terrorist funding. The honest man is smiling today. It is a positive step towards a new India – economically sound, clean and healthy.
