Opposition parties – against the Central Government peddled a narrative against the incumbent government confusing people and reminding them of, playing with words and terming this as “Notebandi” – reminding of the horrors they faced in 2016 in the past. Unfortunately, since the people at large, have little time to understand this in de- tail, plays straight in the hands of many unscrupulous elements who are fear mongering, sur- vive and feed their political ambitions on creating social fear, anguish and rush. Not withstanding fact that these same urban naxals are the ones who will lose most in this `2000 note exchange/withdrawal drive. The general public, as a matter of fact, have been very wise with the changing economic environment in India and have decently, and swiftly already moved to the digital forms of payment exchange and are using various easy to use money payment and receipt formats such as UPI, IMPS, RTGS, MMID, Payment Gateways, Ru- pay et all. Indeed, we realise that in less than 4 years of existence, UPI is performing digital transactions to the tune of `7,000 crore annually (2022-2023) with a distribution of economic activity and related payment / receipt methodologies across the social and economic strata. Adoption of these digital payment / receipt methodologies have changed the landscape of corruption and black Money in India, making every one ac- countable to the society . Govern- ment to Citizen Services are consistently disbursed online, and have become accessible to the last mile. Making such online methodologies accessible to the citizen, the government has ensured that the general public is organised and ready to be a part of the main stream economic activity, ensuring that this time around, the negative sentiment is not set amongst the people of all walks of life, no long queues and no illegal activity in the name of exchange. Walk up to your bank, or Any Branch of the Reserve bank of India, carry the currency with you – make a choice, if you would like to exchange the `20,000 in to `20,000 or simply deposit the amount in the bank – over the counter. Yes, a little inconvenience to this is that exchange will only be effected for 10 of `2000 notes in one time, but then there is no cap on the amount of exchange. This is done to assist everyone across the board. In a more organised manner wherein the financial institutions will have enough new currency for everyone. It’s only going to be fair practices. Easier approach is to just walk over to your bank, not to forget that most banks offer door step pickup of deposits today (at least for premium customers), and effect a deposit in your account as much as you have. Three are approx. 4 months to do the entire transaction, and 30th September is the official cut off date, as of today. Post that, we could certainly await further instructions from RBI. We as responsible readers of this article, need to understand that the government is the check, the ideator in this exercise, the Reserve Bank of India, which is a Autonomous body, will be co-ordinating the entire exercise along with the repre- sentatives of Ministry of Fi- nace, government of India. At this moment, it is perti- nent for us to look into the legal- ity of the entire exercise. Of course, be it Anti-India Forces, Urban Naxals, So called Opposi- tion, or other unscrupulous, fear mongering sections of the “Kotri”, either popularly from the Bollywood or from the Lu- tyens, will try their best to tell you that this entire exercise is illegal in nature, and the government is a narcissistic government, which is sort of of unfactual claim made by the same people, and that this government is bringing in yet another disaster to the economy, and that you have no future left, and that Modi is a dictator and that blah blah blah. But this is not the case. The reality is that this is a complete- ly legal exercise does not need any intervention from the judi- ciary or any kind of other screening as this has been the policy of the reserve bank of In- dia for eons that it has existed since 1999, every time a currency note is released out in the open market. This is that RBI decides the lifespan of a currency note now every currency note has a different lifespan, but in our case, `2,000 note has a legal life span of four-five years from the date of printing another last `2,000 note was printed somewhere around the first quarter of 2017 which is around January or February in 2023. We are already in May it’s approxi- mately five years and so the RBI has now gone ahead and withdrawn the `2,000 currency note this policy’s name is called the “clean note policy .” So there isn’t any fear of a demonetization, or a “notebandi”, or any other such related aspect, which is being paddled by the unscrupulous, anti-Indian forces and miscreants, mischievous people, because their political ambitions come in way off their love for their country, and it is important for all of us to realize this together! The RBI’s clean Note policy aims to maintain the integ- rity of the Indian currency by removing damaged, counterfeit, or soiled notes from circulation. Jai Hind-Jai Bharat!! THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY THE AUTHOR ARE PERSONAL These are some important questions to be discussed, amongst the citizens, social influencers, spread the message of bonhemy and keep calm. There is no note bandi for the citizens who are simply living their daily lives. But definitely a deterrent and a check on corruption. Only time will tell B VAIBHAV AGGARWAL The writer is represents the BJP in National and International Television Media and other Forums as a National Political Leader NOT DEMONETISATION! RBI to withdraw `2,000 notes from circulation Major Highlights After the withdrawal of legal tender status for `500 `1,000 bank notes in circulation, now we all know what happened. After the demonetization they were found in drainages, garbage bins in lot of quantities. Because that was black money. 1 This is all those people who were unscrupulous and who could not exchange or deposit the money in the bank, along with a PAN, and were not able to declare the income. Such money had no value for them. 2 When `2000 note was issued back in November 2016 it was issued with an objective of introducing `2000 denomination till such time other smaller denominations were available. 3 Removing `2000 notes from the market will not have a larger impact. It is also to be noted that RBI has already done this kind of withdrawal of currency in 2013, much before current Modi Govt was voted in by people of India in 2014, 9 years back. 4 Opposition parties – against the Central Government peddled a narrative against the incumbent government confusing people and reminding them of, playing with words and terming this as “Notebandi” – reminding of the horrors they faced in 2016 in the pasts l Vol 4 l Issue No. 355 l RNI NO.

Bommai urges K’taka CM Siddaramaiah not to halt key schemes WB Guv,govt in tiff over appointment of SEC Kolkata: Stalemate over appointment of new state election commissioner in West Ben- gal has refused to die down as the Governor is insisting on a third rec- ommendation from the state government in ad- dition to the two names already sent, while the State Secretariat is un- willing to abide by that. Sources from the State Secretariat said that probably the Gov- ernor House is insisting on the third recommen- dation because the same system is followed in case of the appointment of the Chief Election Commissioner of India. The chair of West Bengal State Election Commissioner is lying vacant now following the end of the tenure of earlier state election commissioner Sourav Das. Initially the state govt had recommended the name of ex-state chief secy Rajiva Sinha.

The Union Home Minister said while urg- ing everyone to surrender arms. While appealing to militant outfits that are part of the SOO in Ma- nipur, Shah said they should surrender weapons to the police right away as “from tomor- row onwards, the police will start combing operations.” “Anyone found with arms will face harsh action under all the relevant legal provisions,” he warned. With illegal settlers from Myanmar being blamed for the violence in Manipur, Shah said biometric registration and retina scans of people coming in from the neighbouring countries will be done. I can say without any hesitation that on account of a hasty decision of the Manipur High Court, a situation of ethnic violence between two groups erupted. Since a BJP government was formed here six years ago, Manipur had become free from bandhs, blockades, curfews and violence. Under the leadership of PM Nar- endra Modi and Chief Minister, the double-en- gine government here achieved unprecedented success on all parame- ters of development. —Amit Shah, Union Home Minister 3 POLICE PERSONNEL HURT IN GUNFIGHT WITH SUSPECTED KUKI MILITANTS Imphal (PTI): Three police personnel were injured in a gunfight with suspected Kuki militants in Manipur’s Bishnupur district, officials said on Thursday.

Shah said, “We are committed to restoring peace in Manipur as early as possible and ensuring their (refugees) return to their homes.” Ethnic clashes broke out in the state nearly a month ago after a ‘Tribal Solidarity March’ was organised in the hill districts to protest the Meitei community’s demand for Scheduled Tribe (ST) status.

CRUCIAL READ jkt-laokn@lh@23@3314 India will not fence cheetah habitats: Govt panel chief Bhopal (Agencies): India does not want fenced habitats for cheetahs like the ones in South Africa and Namibia as it is against the basic ten- ets of wildlife conservation, the head of the Centre’s high-level committee set up to monitor the cheetah reintroduction project said on Thursday . Experts from South Africa and Namibia, who are helping rein- troduce cheetahs in India, have recommended fencing their habitats to prevent poaching, habitat frag- mentation and mini- mise human-animal conflict. However, experts in India say fences can disrupt natural animal movements and impede genetic exchange between popu- lations. “It’s absolutely bo- gus to think of fencing the habitats. It goes against the basic ten- ets of wildlife conservation. What happened in a fenced park there (in Africa) will not happen here. Our un- derstanding is that re- gional networks of protected areas should merge into a national network of protected areas so that there is porosity for wildlife gene flow,” said Rajesh Gopal, chairman of the 11-member cheetah steering committee. “We have our own socio-cultural issues. We have been handling tigers for the last 50 years and we know what the human-wildlife interface is. We can handle cheetahs too,” he said.

London (ANI): Eng- land team captain Ben Stokes believes that he played the ‘John Terry role’ in his IPL team Chennai Super Kings’ victory this season. Stoke referred to Chelsea Legend ‘John Terry’ who famously lifted the Champions League trophy in 2012 dressed in his Chelsea kit despite missing the final against Bayern Munich through sus- pension. Stokes during press commitments at Lord’s discussed his role in his team’s victory in IPL. He said, “I played a little bit of a John Ter- ry role winning the IPL” S t o k e s joined the CSK fran- chise for INR 16.25 crore but played only two matches due to a toe injury. Stokes last appeared in April against Lucknow Su- per Giants. He was back in the UK and watched the inspir- ing victory of his team against Gujarat Titans on his phone in the bar of the Royal Gar- den Hotel in Kens- ington. The Eng- lish team is staying at the hotel for their one- off match against Ire- land. Stokes has limited his bowling as he believes that he has a finite number of overs left in his carrier. “Before I could just bowl and bowl and bowl and turn up pret- ty fresh. Now I’m probably not able to do that, so in-between games is probably the most important bit of managing anything correctly,” said Ben Stokes.

We have full faith that we will form the govt again,asserts PSK The other side of Sachin Pilot’s remark related to 3 demands! First India Bureau Jaipur: On Thursday, Minister Pratap Singh Khachariawas held a presser and said that after the Karnataka de- feat, BJP has now stopped taking the name of Lord Hanu- man. “BJP people are giving statements regarding electricity bill relief. Providing budget is the govt’s work, why are you taking tension. BJP only talks about religious conflict. We have full faith that we will form the government again. If BJP comes by mistake, it will stop all public welfare schemes. Now the fight is between BJP and common people. BJP is not able to bear the shock of Karnata- ka. Now BJP will start making announcements in favor of public. Votes should be given on the basis of work and not on speech. BJP leaders want to reach closer to the PM and there is a lot of compe- tition for this. But what will work for them is going closer to the public, not the Prime Min- ister,” he said. First India Bureau Jaipur: The demands made by Sachin Pilot camp are well known to all ‘spheres’ of State polity . However, there is other side of Pilot’s remark over 3 demands! On Wednesday, Pilot, in Tonk, said to not com- promise on his 3 demands. Political observ- ers tell social media to be the reason for this saying, “For last 3 days there was a section of social media that was angry with Pilot. They were angry with news of reconciliation without any formula in Raj Congress also with no action being taken after the ultimatum of demands.” Pilot’s old remark was also going viral on social media. Pilot had said in Jan Sangharsh Yatra, “I swear by blisters on your feet, now I won’t back down.” With this remark, Pilot supporters are asking many questions on social media. Did Pilot reach Tonk to remove this ongoing anger on social media? That’s why he repeated his remark of not compromising on all 3 demands? Or is there really no formula for reconciliation in Raj Congress yet?

Rajendra Chhabra Jaipur: After taking a revolutionary step of enforcing the e-filing system to make State administration trans- parent, smooth and ag- ile, Chief Secretary Usha Sharma has taken yet another major step on Thursday . Issuing an order, she has directed that all employees (officials and babus) falling under the Depts Directorates in Secretariat, even police officials, will not be able to stay put on one post for more than three years. Only in special cases will this tenure be of five years. In the orders carrying Usha Sharma’s signa- tures, it has been clearly said that “officials and babus stay put in Depts, Directorates, Subordi- nate offices and in Sec- retariat for a long time in the same section or office. Due to this the state work is affected and suspicion is created on the commitment and reliability of the administration.” The order has been issued to all ACS, Principal Secretar- ies and Secretaries, along with DG Police, SPs, Divisional Com- missioners, Collectors, HODs and all chiefs of Corporations and Boards and they have been directed to ensure order’s compliance. Ad- ministrative experts stress that this is the first time, in recent history, that the CS has issued such an order. Through this order, Usha Sharma has re-en- forced the power and prestige of office of CS in administration. Along with this, she has also projected her image of being a ‘disci- plined’ ‘no-nonsense’ administrator.
