Rumours became rife. Some tried to invest their dying currency in gold. Some contacted their near and dear ones in this miserable hour. People could get only Rs 4000/ of old denomination exchanged with the new one. Big lines became the order of the day.
Instead of getting shorter, these queues were getting longer with every passing day. The last date for the whole process was 30th of December. The persons could deposit the old cash worth Rs 2.5 lac till the said date.
The main objective of this move was to curb the black money, corruption and fake money menace. All the people but those who were indulged in malpractices welcomed the move. The whole opposition shook hand against this move under one pretence or the other. They called this decision a draconian law and wanted the govt to roll back it. Tirades were made to target the decision. Govt also carried out counter attacks.
The new currency which replaced the old one is of denomination of 500/- and 2000/-. Though the people faced a lot of inconvenience owing to shortage of funds, they did not criticize the govt for the move. Even they lauded the Modi govt for this big move. Prime Minister also addressed the people many times telling the people that it was a mahayajn and they must offer their own ahuti in it.
He further said he was aware the hardships they were suffering from but he sought only 50 days for setting the things right. He jibed at the chief political leaders who have stashed big amount of money and now joined hand to force govt to take the decision back.
The most interesting thing regarding the demonetisation is that people are devising various unique methods for transforming their black money in to white one. Some of these methods are as follows –
Depositing money in the accounts of their poor relatives and friends. Enticing the people with some percentage of money for exchange. Asking their employees to stand in the long queues in front of Banks and ATMs for getting money exchanged. Hiring labors for some Rupees ranging from Rs 500/- to 700/- for becoming the part of long queues in front of banks/ ATMs. Converting black money in to gold. Paying a few months salaries in advance. Paying back loans forcibly. Using their influence / links with bank employees and so on.
