We owed demonetisation to the nation, says Commerce Minister
The Modi government “owed” demonetisation to the nation and it had to do it to eradicate black money, Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said. It may sound ‘propagandist’ but one needs a strong and courageous leadership to take such a bold step, she stated. This step was necessary as 87% of our economy was informal, she added.
