Your contribution to the nation-(Bhupender Kumar ) Did Modi take lead from Whispersinthecorridors Forum column dated February 15, 2010 ?

Corruption and currency of 1000 and 500 notes

So the solution lies not in raiding 5-10 officers but in removing currency of notes of thousand and five hundred Rupee from the circulation. There should be smaller notes of 5,10,20,50 and maximum 100 rupees in India.
If the above is implemented then corruption will be eradicated conveniently. There will not be any need for raiding the premises of powerful bureaucrats and politicians. Because if one officer wants to take a bribe of 1 crore - he will have to build a big godown to store 1 crore Rupees of denomination of 50-100 notes. And the one who will give 1 crore bribe will have to hire 5 trucks to transport it to the officer! With this fake currency will also be eliminated - since nobody would risk printing 50 rupee note and get caught.

Therefore, through this esteemed website, may I request the readers as well as the authorities concerned to take immediate steps to stop printing one thousand and five hundred rupee notes and take back the notes of these denominations from the public by exchanging with smaller notes within a short span of time. India is a rich country with poor people - let its people be rich as well.

I request Whisper corridors to start a discussion on the above so that people can exchange their views on stopping the notes of 1000 and 500 Rupees, in the interest of common man of India.

Rumor has it that Bitiya has streaked her hair like Daadi!!
And soon she'll also dress only in khaadi!!

Who is responsible for mismanagement in demonetization?

*IAS Babus should be made to account for the demonetization Buggers Muddle that they have created*-Of An excellent scheme by the PM/ Govt

This exposes their full-fledged ignorance of the Banking sector and lack of in-depth Planning. The Finance Secretary, Banking Secretary and Revenue Secretary made a hash of the entire scheme.Babus are Jack of all trades & Master of none :this is happening in all Ministries including sensitive ones .Their colossal ignorance was of such a huge magnitude that they did not even know how many notes needed to be printed & ATM cassetes need to to modified ! !At least now the politicians & over a Billion Citizens of this country are witness & need to know that misplaced reliance on the IAS is proving very costly.
Modi must be ruing his dependence on the IAS. The political debate now going on in Parliament is about the total lack of preparedness of this entire operation. A good scheme has been mishandled thoroughly by a *bunch of IAS wallahs.* The irony is that no media is blaming them! The bankwallas or politicians are taking all the blame!

" Blaming bureaucracy is misplaced perception "

Several posts accusing bureaucracy betrays hair-splitting mentality. How could currency notes of Rs 500 and 1000 denominations pre-empt PM's decision ? The objective was to take on blackmarketeers including jewellers, builders,colonisers, corrupt politicians, bureaucrats by surprise without allowing them time to legitimize their dirty cash by depositing in banks, resorting to hawala transactions , illegal purchase of immovable assets , gold etc.

Contributions made by banking and income tax officials merit appreciation for implementing the historic decision. PM Modi and the officials would surely be under threat from those who are adversely impacted by surgical strike on black money. The inconvenience caused to public-at-large, is also abating gradually.

PM Modi's bold action besides leading to deflation , enhancing GDP,will also neutralize naxalism and terror attacks from across the border in absence of terror-funding .Results will start appearing soon. Just wait and watch.

Diya Tale Andhera

Today in the whispers there is an item that Mrs. Kusum Sharma of UP cadre has been inducted in to the IAS post retirement. When there are laid down rules for not considering any officer who are left with certain years of service before retirement, is it a mistake on the part of whisper, DoPT or UPSC, if the news is correct. The same efficient DoPT has not been able to complete the cadre restructuring of CSS & CSSS for the last two years. I hope these are not ache din but dipak tale andhera.
