Demonetisation – Where are the currency notes promised by PM?

A reported statement of the RBI says that more than 80% of the banned old notes have been received by the RBI as on 10th December. It comes to Rs. 12.44 lakh crores according to RBI. Well and good. But how much new notes have been issued? RBI says it has released notes worth Rs. 4.61 lakh crore, meaning one-third of the money taken back. While the old notes are in Rs. 1,000 and Rs. 500, the new notes are mostly of Rs.2,000 and some in Rs.500. Out of these, notes worth lakh of crores are diverted to the hands of money launderers and bigwigs through corrupt Bank officials and political patronage. Almost every day such people are caught, but it may be 2-3% only of the launderers.

The poor and middle class people continue to stand in front of the banks and ATMs in hundreds to get some money to cater to daily needs. PM, FM and those in the government make high speeches about the benefit of digital system as also assuring that this trouble will continue only for a few days or weeks more.

The job of the government is not to harass the people; but that is what is actually happening. In fact, the demonetisation is an attack on the poor people. The people should give a fitting reply to this attack .

SBI moves for VRS in affiliated banks before merger

It is reported that the SBI Board has cleared Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) for the employees of the affiliated banks which are going to be merged with it. The intention is to retrench 55,000 officers and staff, who are above 55 years of age.

The affiliated banks which are proposed to be merged are: State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur, State Bank of Travancore, State Bank of Patiala, State Bank of Mysore and State Bank of Hyderabad.

In fact there is no need fr the merger except to reduce the PSU Banks, in order to help the private banks to increase their business. The bank workers are resisting the move. Our full support to them
