As Prime Minister Narendra Modi decided to ban Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 currency notes, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah compared the fight against black money with the surgical strikes.
"I welcome the decision of the government to ban Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 notes. On behalf of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), I congratulate the Prime Minister for taking such a brave step. This fight against black money will continue. Decisions like forming SIT were earlier taken for the same," BJP President Shah said.
"I believe his step against black money is no less than surgical strike. It will not only be a problem to those keeping black money, but also give a major blow to those indulging in the business of fake currency. It will give a strong message to those having black money," he further added.
