Foolish people .... why to burn the currency .... Deposit 2 laks in each persons account and make it white .... Each family of 5 members can help to convert 10 laks black money in to white .... Instead of burning, donate to the poor people / relatives and advice them to deposit in their bank accounts .... 2 laks per person .... in this way, your headache is gone ... Indians got white funds and poor people / relatives are benefited .... So many benefits with one master stoke ... Naren, Bupa, kaisa hai idea ....
