Though a bit late, power star and Jana Sena Party chief Pawan Kalyan on Tuesday came down heavily on the demonetisation drive taken up by Prime Minister Narendra Modi that has created nation-wide chaos among the people, while black money continues to exist in various forms.
Continuing his twitter war on the BJP, Pawan Kalyan, however, targeted RBI governor Urjit Patel prominently and the “bosses” (Modi) indirectly.
Unlike his previous tweets, his comments on Tuesday are really thought-provoking and reflected the intensity of the situation.
Here are the comments of Pawan Kalyan:
“Mr Urjit Patel, This is late. Sri Balaraju from Kurnool is one of the many countless victims who had lost their lives because of your well thought demonetisation.
Mr Urjit Patel, in a country like ours, where manual scavenging is still in existence, even after 69 years of independent India, governments could do nothing to alleviate manual scavengers suffering and to bring their human dignity back. And now, in a country like this, you want us to believe that cashless economy will work?
Mr Urjit Patel, your well thought demonetisation has disrupted the lives of crores of your fellow Indians who are Adivasis, farmers, daily wage labourers, housewives, employees, senior citizens, vegetable and fruit vendors, construction workers, contract labourers, small businessmen and the list goes on and on..
While innocent and helpless are dying standing in the lines stretching to kilometres, the scoundrels of first order are exchanging the plundered wealth of this nation – sitting in the comfort of their homes…
Mr Urjit Patel, you must be jumping with joy getting most of the 86 per cent cash deposited in your banks. And now you may proudly claim that black money has been wiped out. But the truth is you have replaced the old ways with new ways – and the new kids on the block who have joined the existing group of plunderers is a percentage of the banking staff..
And you know why this has happened? I will quote from the book of Nassim Nicholas Taleb: “When the gap between what you know and what you think you know becomes dangerously wide, disasters of this magnitude will be created.”
At the cost of countless lives lost and helpless millions, you and your bosses kindly sleep tight!!
