This is History (429)
The birth of a new child and of a new order is accompanied with much suffering.

It's amazing ! - "Wait Ram Rajya is coming"
French prophet Nostradamus predicted Modi Era 450 years ago-
He wrote - That from 2014 to 2026, a man will lead India, whom initially, people will hate but after that people will love him so much that he will be engaged in changing the country's plight and direction. This was predicted in the year 1555. Written in French and translated into Marathi language by the famous astrologer of Maharashtra Dr.Ram Chandra Joshi, it is clearly written on the 32-33 page - "Wait, Ram Rajya is coming"
*A middle aged superpower administrator will bring golden age not only in India but on the entire Earth, who will revive his Sanatana Dharma and will make India the best Hindu nation by defeating the evils and would be placed on Power of its Own. Under his leadership India will not only just become the Global Master, but many countries will also come into the shelter of India.*

If they were honest they'd say!!!
Firstly with the demonetization they'd stay!!
Then they'd demand that the inconvenience should be addressed!!
Because many Honest Indians are indeed stressed!!!
It's upset their lives and some are in turmoil!!!
And koyi koyi ka tho blood karr raha hai boil!!
But still principally they are with the demonetization!!!
And they too say it's a wonderful step for the Nation!!
The inconveniencing is need based!!!
And their anger is not misplaced!!
But aren't we to blame!!
To what was going on for decades we were game!!
It's our Vote that gives them road to power and pelf!!!
So its imperative we do an audit of Self!!
And now anarchy is the mode being taken!!
To this nefarious design Government should awaken!!
But Modi ji after 50 days of bearing it all kuch toh doh humme prize!!
To our needs please also rise!!
India is because of us!!

Arre Baba there is a time to accept phenomenal achievements with grace!
Now he says he will raise demonetization

Such issues don't politicize and don't publically whine!!
Confucius says…. Sadly koyi logh ke sudharne ka there is 0 chance!!!!

Previous sanction of Government
The reported decision to protect government servants from unnecessary prosecution seems timely and is welcome. Previous sanction of government for prosecution of government servants is being contemplated. Such a step would be in the interest of efficiency and objectivity of the government employees and lead to greater professionalization and better delivery. While amending the relevant law and rules, it may be necessary to protect officers of the All India Services serving in the states. In their case too, previous sanction of President should be made mandatory. This will protect these officers from prosecution arising out of political vendetta of the state government.
PK Mishra
Former Secretary to Government of India

PM has done a great job
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has done a wonderful and successful job for the country's weaker section as well as saving country from deadly end. Today people of Pakistan are appreciating currency demonetization and saying that why aren't they having a leader like Modi who can save the country from corruption and terrorism etc.
No matter this will take the Black money out as well a big slap on terrorism, The major benefit goes to Banks and Govt. system but above all it's a very big benefit for the weaker sections as the money goes from big houses to small ones and their small cash savings goes secure into banks. The political parties have already distributed crores of rupees to their communities (Rs two lakh per family) who can convert or keep the currency with them as a token for the nearby election votes.
An example will be as a small helper is getting Rs 2.5 lakhs in cash to deposit & issue cheque for Rs 2.0 lakh and take 50000 as the conversion fee benefitting from this overall process of currency demonetization. In expectation these converters can be future Income Tax payers, who can get micro finance for their ease of livings. It's a Win -Win situation for the Government as well as the helper.
May be tough time for all of us for the next 1-1.5 years as lots of people will lose jobs as company goes bankrupt and overall business will suffer but future will be positive as Inflation will be controlled and bank interests will step down. With this move government should also start pension for every citizen and compulsory insurance for much safer and secure livings.
Best wishes PM Sab

Removing 500-1000 notes
Prime MInister Modi has truly taken a historical step by de-legitimising certain currency notes, which will clean up the economic and monetary system on an unprecedented scale to benefit the entire country.

It is only hoped that, knowing the tendency of the tax dept., the taxmen do not unleash harassment and tax terrorism. Hopefully, they will not seize this opportunity to continue with their extortion by finding new ways.

Of course, the Ministry must be aware of this possibility and will devise fool-proof systems and methodology to keep them on a leash.
