Respected Modiji demonetisation was good step.Black money cant eliminate completely with this step.Many guilty people are invested black money in gold and land and by using benami. U should do surgical strikes on them also. And after that we should seize black money abroad. keep going step by step. Hoping good results

Respected Modiji as per report within December all old notes will be returned.Its clear that Black money are deposited through some ways. In this circumstance its clear that corrupted bank officers played role in that. Sir if this step has to be successful all accounts should be checked and should punish bank officers who are guilty.dont suspend them just dismiss them.if black money is not seized through this step,opposition will raise this as their correct assumptions.

I request to Hon. Prime minister to take strict actions against the members of parliament who are creating obstacle for discussion by creating chaos. I request to terminate each and every person who is trying to slow down the growth of progress of India by not ‘working’ in parliament.

Banks not supporting Citizens with Pradhan mantri schemes of Rs12 and Rs 330. They are not giving application forms and not giving certificates. They are saying these schemes have failed and hence discontinued by government. Indeed many people did not get certificates. Intervention is requested please as banks seem to be misleading people. Also please start toll free customer care for such schemes.

dear sir, as you had taken wonderful steps toward black money by demonetization of big currency. yet there are various side effect of this step. one issue is the paying in the hospital, they ask for cash ,and bank doesn't give the enough cash. many banks give 2000 or 4000, which is not sufficient. so there should be a debit card swipe machine in each hospitals even in rural areas, for payment . as we all need cashless economy. thank you

House Rentals - Dear Sir, your actions towards eliminating black money or unaccounted money is commendable. Now we see all consumers are going towards digital payments. This sector is one where most of the owners won’t share their details like Bank A/C, PAN details and they accept only cash (with No Receipt) and now they even demanding smaller (100/-) denominations as they don’t want to reach the bank for their needs. Please regularize this RENTAL sector and make owners are accountable.
