PM Narendra Modi’s demonetization measures have been lauded by many while some still have some kind of a negative response on it. The intention for devaluing Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes are intended for eliminating black money, but there are also many who are facing hardships due to this.
Ilayathalapathy Vijay called for a sudden press meet today, the 15th November and shared his thoughts.
He said, “Although I welcome Central Government's demonetization move which would certainly uplift the Indian economy, personally I feel, certain things could have been avoided. In India, we probably have 20% rich people out of which a few percentages don't pay their taxes. But why should we punish the other 80% people for that? I have been reading newspapers and seeing people suffering; heard an old lady forcing herself to commit suicide because her granddaughter’s wedding got called off. A newborn baby died due to inadequate treatment and more such situations. These things should have been taken care of”.
