Living without Cash

Oh my god! The Modi government has made a huge announcement today. All 500 INR and 1000 INR notes have been invalidated in one fell swoop.

Banks are closed the next two days and ATMs wont be operating more than 2000 INR until the end of the year.

अब की बार मोदी सरकार। नोटों की बजा दी जोरदार।

 

Why we pay taxes

A discussion with a friend about salary structures resulted in this post –

  1. I am damn scared of an IT raid
  2. Paying corrupt officials the salary and perks that they dont deserve
  3. Paying for infrastructural developments that dont help anyone
  4. Reducing the deficits of the nation
  5. If I do it, then everyone else could also do it

Despite all this cynicism, I still pay my dues … and I think that gives me a moral authority to demand the same from my fellow Indians.

All it takes is an idea.
