I am so very happy these days for my native and my motherland “India”, finally the people have opened their eyes, to be part of a CHANGE.
Our economy which had bits of indigestion, slow metabolism, acidity, flatulence of corruption is finally on detoxification diet. Demonetization of currency may not be the permanent solution but it is one of the answers to eradication of parallel economy which is not only crippled as of now but we hope goes in COMA soon not to recover again. Wishful thinking! So what at least someone thought about it. The idea of stripping the legal tender status of old currency may not be the most perfect or perfect but not executed in the most perfect way, so what at least the change is initiated. No one has foolproof answer to arrest corruption, insincere people have millions of bogus ways to befool others. But still it is the Boldest of the step which is not just plan but execution at last.
Why to question anything unless it is acted upon. It may be flawed but what was not?
Always in history it is the common man who suffers, this time too. But it shows the common man/woman is ready to go extra mile to see his/her country improve. When people get actively involved in a CHANGE it becomes REVOLUTION.
The cleanliness drive that began with physical dirt and garbage out in the open has finally been combined with the garbage lying inside the homes of corrupt people. But now it is stinking more than ever inside their homes than the garbage stinking outside.
