Perhaps all those that have died in the queues so far, are vegetable-munching, weak-but-evil yindoos? On topic: The biggest shocker for me was how Kejriwal tried to hide behind the inconveniences of the people, to protest this move. But knowing how he figuratively and literally hugged Lalu just...

Nobody here or in the government is delusional enough to think that this alone will put an to all forms of corruption. But this is a major step in that direction. Even before this, Modi had already initiated smaller but significant reforms - like one time amnesty scheme. As per his own words...

Exactly! What these people fail to mention is the loss of millions of lives that happen DIRECTLY because of corruption every year! Any loss of life is regrettable. But this is pure sensationalism, politics over dead bodies!

He will dismiss the reaction as some BJP goons among the innocent people shouting slogans.

Too good to be true.

BJP has shot itself in the foot by not communicating with the people effectively. Look at GVL Narasimha, the "spokesperson in chief" for Demonetization, the whole world over! The guy is a fcuking clown. Not only is he making a fool of Modi by not communicating properly on all major media but...

I know it will be difficult to use the smaller denominations. But that is exactly what we need now; make it difficult to use cash. The poor can still use 100's since their daily needs are usually met with smaller denominations. Only those that deal in hundreds of thousands or millions in cash...

NONE! It is preposterous even to suggest that they can somehow trace a currency! BTW, I really think it was a bad move to re-introduce denominations of 500 and 2000! Why go for half measures when you have already taken the plunge? If not, Modi should have at least waited for a few more months...

She is NOT the daughter of any BJP MLA. She is just some bank employee of a branch in Delhi posing for camera just before distribution. http://www.opindia.com/2016/11/congress-it-cell-caught-spreading-lies-on-twitter-again/ What is wrong with you people? How easy is it to fool you guys? Even...

He is just too sophisticated. He won't be done in so easily - not after one conviction. Same as the Pawars or the Gowda's!

Yes, but whoever accepts old currency and tries to deposit in the bank is only inviting scrutiny of Income Tax officials upon himself. There is an automatic flagging of all deposits above Rs.250,000. Already a few of the jewelers in Delhi got raided by the IT department exactly for this reason...

Back out of the deal if you can, mate. The prices are expected to go down anyway. Not worth arranging 100's for an a**hole who insists on receiving money in cash. You would only be encouraging black money. If you just withdrew from Bank recently and had no black money component, it shouldn't be...

You must pay a visit to Hampi then. You will cry tears of blood!

What do we have to lose?! Just do whatever it takes to get them on our shores please. Others will follow eventually. It hurts my eyes just to look at how much forex we pay for even basic electronic goods for a country that is supposed to be good at software.

Exactly! India should stop creating capital for China where none exists. I know NSG is being considered as a stepping stone for UNSC membership, but it is precisely for this reason that China is opposing it. So then what are the realistic chances of China letting India into the UNSC itself...

True but as long as we keep making such incidents a big deal and an emotional issue, we will continue having disturbed people resorting to such measures since it is very easy to draw attention with this. We have far bigger issues to address rather than going after any lowlife whose sole aim is...

Exactly! This is one area, I think, where both US and India can truly collaborate without stepping on the other's toes. US can concentrate on the far bigger ambition of Mars and beyond, while India can fill the low-cost, light-weight niche.

I have a theory that in India, every well-meaning social movements give birth to opportunistic parties that only feed on the despair and anger of the gullible people like vultures. JP movement directly or indirectly gave birth to Mandal politics that is still feeding on the less fortunate...

Huh? Whose language is she parroting, anyway?

Originally from around Sirsi. How about you? H'Nagara?
