Demonetization Of Indian Money

Superior Essays
Demonetization of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 currency is going to make a common Indian citizen richer Demonetization of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 currency is going to make a common Indian citizen richer Demonetization of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 currency notes by the union government is a laudable and historic effort, we shall be glad on electing a government courageous enough to execute it; there is high chance – this decision may have profound negative impact and dethrone ruling party in the coming elections; people are not fully aware of its long-term benefits and their interim resentment could be cashed by the opposition parties to misguide them. Government’s latest initiative will benefit you in the long run and boost the country’s economy. If we don’t put an end to unaccounted or black money, rich would become richer and poor would be poorer. According to SBI, “ Banks received deposits worth Rs 53,000 crore since the government put out of circulation high-value banknotes in a bid to drain illegal wealth. Nearly 14 lakh crore are held in Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes now – nearly 86% of the total value of currencies of all denominations in circulation” [1]. The government will have enough money to invest in infrastructure, education, agriculture, and all that would make India economically stronger. …show more content…
How would you benefit from demonetization? Buying a house or a piece of land or a gold ornament which was not affordable before demonization, due to raised prices from all the transactions made with unaccounted money, will now be within your reach. As an honest taxpayer you should hail this decision; presently all the money you earn, would be worthy and make you feel rich enough. All the good you have done to the nation as a law-abiding citizen, by paying your fair share of taxes would soon pay off. It’s a known fact that most of the land transactions happen at least 50 percent in black or unaccounted money which government isn’t aware of it; people do this just to avoid taxes. Demonetization would ban black money to a major extent, for the matter of fact most of it would be stashed as bundles of Rs 500s and Rs 1,000s; on account of being unaccounted, they cannot go and exchange their money in the banks for newer currency notes. Assuming that you want to buy a house, they would want to pay the complete price incurred in buying a land in full white, due to lack of unaccounted money; as people only have a small amount of white or legal money, they cannot shell out as much as they could have done before (with black money); this leads to reduction of prices in the real estate sector. It’s a buyers market, supposing that you are a short-term thinker you might get a feeling that you are at loss as a seller. Not many people realize that fruits you have enjoyed with the unaccounted money transactions are hitting back at you and harder at others who have been paying their taxes correctly; the world you are living in is a vicious cycle, considering that there is no black money involved in selling a piece of land owned by you, you would have less money to pay for a swanky car or the goldsmith you want to get a gold ornament from; decrease in demand would lead to price cuts to sell their products and have the businesses running, so in a way good act, people have done in selling their land through 100% legal transaction is paying back to them by making things and services more affordable. For the matter of fact, you would be drastically affected by this move, but this would only be temporary only for few months. Real estate would be one sector who would face a major setback, all the prices that have been skyrocketed due to a cycle of unaccounted transactions, will see a drastic downfall that is for the good of the society. Unaccounted money transactions have led to inflation of prices of goods and services would now plummet. Also from all the money collected through taxes, the government will have enough money to make this country, economically a better place to live in. We are curbing the terror as well with this move, as most of the terrorist activities would be financed by counterfeit money, demonetization would take them

    This work gives us an idea of what Justinian and Theodora might actually have been like, while giving us an insight to how Procopius could have been treated and his feelings towards the royal couple. Given that Procopius waited to write this piece until Justinian had died, we can assume that he was afraid of Justinian and what kind of backlash may occur if he wrote this piece at a time where Justinian could read it. The title in itself, ‘The Secret History” is representative how Procopius felt about Justinian and Theodora. This is a historical piece meant to give information about the past to different readers, and attaching the word secret in to title indicates that this history was meant to be kept private until the objects of the piece could no longer be involved.…

    It can be a solution to many of the problems our society faces with drug addiction. We can remove the different drugs that have additives and other harmful chemicals that dealers do not warn buyers about. Our government can regulate the drugs, just as they do with prescription drugs, which will hopefully decrease the overdose death rates within drug use. Decriminalization will also help decrease prison population since drug addicts will no longer be criminalized for using drugs in our streets. It also solves the HIV risk factors within the drug users when contaminated needles are shared among other users.…

    J. C. Watts once blindly stated, “When it comes to the American Dream, no one has a corner on the market. All of us have an equal chance to share in that dream.” (Watts 1) Historian, James Truslow Adams, has been credited as the creator of the idea known as the American Dream. This American Dream has since then further evolved into the idea that every United States citizen should have an equal opportunity to succeed and prosper through hard work and drive. Not all people are given an equal chance to share in this American Dream because of society’s classification of people into subgroups based off the color of their skin, economic status, and the gender they identify themselves with.…

    Marijuana can have both positive and negative effects on the economy. Legalizing marijuana would increase government revenues. Jeff Miron, a Harvard economist, and 300 other economist estimate that “the government could save 7.7 billion dollars annually by not having to enforce the current economic prohibition” (Pot Legalization 2012).
