Shaji, Rich people have already got their black money in white before 8th November, they have been informed before hand by Feku....no one died from rich and other political parties..
Prime Minister Sab, what is happening.... people are dying...have mercy on them....
According ruling BJP, people will have to sacrifice for ache din and this is what happening. Ruling party is not worried about the daily deaths of people becoz all of them are from poor family whereas rich people are relaxing since they got the money exchanged in advacne of the declaration. I think bjp is not feeling shame for running Govt on the dead bodies and they feel proud of these deaths telling this is a sacrifice for bright future of India. None of the people who has black money every stood in the que. BJP leaders received new currency in advance. I dont know how many more poor people will have to die before the situation becomes normal. shamelsss govt is still justifying their decision. Mukhtar Abbas is actign as if he is an agent of Devil.
Insane Modi Bhakts like Naren might be happy after reading this news.
According to Bhakta\s they are sacrificing their lives for the country.
