RBI asks banks to standardSUNVILLA SAMACHAR ise NPAs only on full interDemonetisation Has Been Most Devastating est, principal payments Editorial
Trinamool Congress nominates ex-Goa CM Luizinho Faleiro to Rajya Sabha
For Common People In Independent India
In the entire history of post-independence India, no single economic measure has been as devastating for the people and as utterly futile in achieving its stated objectives, as thedemonetisation of currency notes, of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 denomination, decreed by theModi government on November 8, 2016.The fact that it did not achieve its stated objectiveswas not unforeseen; on the contrary, it was obvious to every economist that demonetisationwas the height of folly even as it was announced, which is why it was opposed by all, excepta handful of “climbers” keen to please the government. The government had mentioned three objectives of the move: to eliminate black money, toget rid of counterfeit notes and to attack terror funding; of these the last two were add-onsthat everybody knew did not carry much credibility. A study by the Indian Statistical Institute had estimated counterfeit currency to be a minuscule proportion of total currency; hence thesudden demonetisation of 85 per cent of the country’s currency for the sake of getting rid ofa minuscule amount of counterfeit currency could not be taken seriously as an argument. And likewise terror funding occurs through diverse routes and nobody seriously thought that demonetisation would stop terror funding or even hurt it temporarily. The real objective was to eliminate black money; and believing that demonetisation would do so betrays the Modi government’s total lack of understanding of the black economy, and hence of the economy in general. Demonetisation as a solution to the problem of black money was based on an understanding of “black money” derived from Bollywood films, namely a stack of currency notes stuffed in pillows, or in suitcases kept under beds. In fact there is no such thing as “black money”, only a number of economic activities that are not officially declared, primarily for the purpose of avoiding taxes. All economic activity requires money for its operation; and undeclared activities are no exception to it. The money that is used for carrying on these undeclared activities may be loosely called “black money”, but they do not remain inactive, as a hoard stuffed into pillows and suitcases. The use of money can be shifted from declared to undeclared economic activities, so that even if the Modi government had succeeded in “killing” a whole lot of money used in the black economy, whose owners, as expected by the government, did not turn up at various banks for converting their demonetised currency holdings into new money, this would still not have killed black economic activities: money would just have shifted from the “white” to the“black” economy, that is, from declared to undeclared economic activities, causing at themost a shortage of money in general and hence a general recession, but not the eliminationof the “black” economy. In the event however 99 percent of the disabled currency notescame back to banks for conversion into new notes. Nothing demonstrates the utter failure ofdemonetisation as clearly as this fact. The government’s expectation was that “black” moneywould not be exchanged for “white” because their possessors would be too scared to do so,for fear of being caught if they turned up with large amounts whose presence in their possession they could not explain. BJP spokesmen even suggested that if a certain amount of money did not turn up forconversion, say Rs 100, then, currency being the liability of the Reserve Bank of India, Rs100 of liability would disappear from the RBI’s balance sheet, which could be substituted byprinting new money and this new money could be simply distributed among the people.Estimates of the amounts that could be so distributed among the people were bandiedabout. But when 99 percent of disabled currency notes turned up for conversion, it showednot only how absurd these calculations had been, but also how utterly naïve had been thegovernment’s expectation that “black” money would be disabled by demonetisation andeliminated from the economy. The entire exercise therefore turned out to be a mere act ofconverting old notes into new ones, and that too at great inconvenience to the people. But the inconvenience did not end there; demonetisation was not just a game played out,with no great consequence (apart from the pain of queueing up for hours outside bankswhich incidentally claimed many lives).It had severe economic consequences for theeconomy. The currency notes that were demonetised amounted to nearly 85 per cent of the economy’s total cash; and 85 per cent of total cash being immobilised suddenly had effectsthat were crippling in both the short and the long-term. Between - Kapilkumar M. Hirpara demonetisation and the near complete.

Eating healthy and being active most of the time can not only help your blood sugar levels but also keep your weight, cholesterol. World Diabetes Day 2021: Diabetes is a major public health problem worldwide that seems to be approaching epidemic proportions. In India, it is on the rise affecting the urban as well as rural populations. As per the IDF Diabetes Atlas Committee, globally, in 2019, 463 million people had diabetes and if estimates are to be believed, by 2030, diabetes will affect 578 million and by 2045, 700 million people will be reporting high blood sugar levels. The situation in India is no better – As per IDF, 77 million Indians have this metabolic condition. Diabetes is a lifestyle disorder and there are couple of important pointers to keep in mind, to prevent and manage it -– eating a healthy diet and being physically active. If you are overweight, weight loss should be your first goal. If you are pre-diabetic, losing 5-10% of your weight can lower your chances of developing diabetes by 58%. Even if you have been diagnosed with diabetes, losing 5-10% can improve your blood sugar levels significantly. Eating a healthy diet could be challenging especially in the festive season when one is surrounded by savoury snacks and delicious sweets. Consuming such items by people with diabetes can lead to blood glucose spikes, thereby causing increased diabetes complications. Hence, the key is to smartly choose foods that will not cause the blood glucose levels to go haywire. The concept of glycaemic index or GI helps us understand how soon food causes an increase in blood sugar levels. The reading ranges from 0 to 100. Foods that raise blood sugar rapidly are given a higher number, for example the glycaemic index of white bread is 75. Apple, on the other hand, has a GI of 28. Protein foods like Greek style yogurt has a GI of 11 and peanuts have a GI of 7. Those having diabetes can therefore choose low GI foods. People with diabetes.

Perspective on IIP & CPI numbers by Ms. Rajani Sinha, Chief Economist
“While the sharp deceleration in IIP growth is mainly because of the base effect, even on a sequential basis the IIP has shown a decline and this is a cause of concern. While the infrastructure sector has shown a sequential decline, the silver lining is that on a MoM basis the consumer goods segment, specifically the consumer durables sector has shown a strong improvement. Going forward, for sustainable economic momentum in 2022, the critical driver would be boost to consumer spending through
demand stimulating government policies. Eventually private investment will also improve as capacity utilization level improves going forward”. “While CPI is at a comfortable level around 4%, inflationary concerns persist with high core inflation. While the cut in excise duty on petrol/ diesel will provide reprieve to inflation, high global commodity prices including energy prices, pose a threat for future inflation. Even with economies bouncing back to normalcy, some of the supply bottlenecks are still lingering.
