Decision on note ban like 'kadak chai'; bad taste for rich, poor love it: Modi...

Terming his decision to ban Rs500 and Rs1000 notes as ‘kadak’ or strong like tea, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Monday said that the demonetisation has left a bad taste for the rich, while the poor are loving it.

“My decision (to ban Rs500 and Rs1000) is like strong tea that I used to make earlier in my days as a chaiwala. The poor are loving it, while for rich it's bad in taste.”

Modi lauded his government for the decision to demonetise the big notes to root out corruption and black money and said the step had robbed the rich of their sleep.

“After demonetisation, poor enjoying sound sleep, rich running from pillar to post to buy sleeping pills,” Modi said at BJP's Parivartan Yatra in Ghazipur, Uttar Pradesh. He said the move to demonetise big currencies would help bridge the gap between rich and poor in the country.

“Those who are looting the country by stashing away Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes, should they not suffer, are we not ready to experience a little hardships to teach a lesson to those cheating the country? We are going to rid the country of cheaters,” Modi said. Full story...
