On Monday,a delegation of Sena MPs submitted a memorandum to RBI deputy Governor R Gandhi, urging for “active measures” to ease out the “chaos” caused by the announcement to render notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 illegal.
Sena claimed the declaration to scrap old high value tenders made by Modi last month is “imposing significant costs on economy.”
“The country is increasingly worried about the absolute mismanagement in implementation (of demonetisation) and daily announcements that show chaos. In no other country would such a decision, where citizens are looked down as thieves, be welcomed peacefully. We look forward to seeing the active measures taken by the RBI on easing out the chaos by demonetisation,” stated the memorandum.
“Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s remarks on the floor of Rajya Sabha gave rise to the questions on trustworthiness of the banking system, as he asked government to name any country where people have deposited their money but are not able to withdraw it,” it said.
The memorandum stated that ,”The frustration, mental agony and trauma caused to the people, who have been restrained to withdraw their legitimate money from their bank accounts, has resulted in more than 80 deaths till date.”
Sena further said the government should not be “too late” to exercise “corrective steps” as more complexities may deteriorate the health of the nation.
The memorandum imposed a questionable situation to the government and asked for the scope of remedy stating,”The question remains, given the timeline, will RBI score over the challenges ahead and smoothen the disarrayed state of the economy? Remember that the common man is the pulse of the economy, will he get solace after December 30?”
“The countdown has already begun as 27 out of 50 days have passed by and 23 days are left for the government to put the derailed economy back on track and restore normalcy.”the memorandum said.
“Thus, in nutshell, from labourers to farmers, from weavers to artisans, from workers to traders and businessmen, from service sector to manufacturing sector all are the sufferers in the onslaught of demonetisation,” the memorandum concluded.
The wave of Demonetisation has witnessed a trail of war-of-words from its announcement until date. If not opposition party,its the political associations which now paves way for the series of accusations and criticisms.
However,the element of society which is hard hit by the move are keeping quiet and are cooperating to achieve the dream of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
