- I hear Uday saying our institutions need strengthening.
- if the US dollar is a financial terrorist in the world, because it uses it monopoly power over the economy, doesn't it follow that whoever controls the currency within the country is a financial terrorist within the country. We have seen the RBI being asked to give it reserves to the govt, which increasingly bringing taxes under cover like the changes in Taxation on Debt instruments a few days before its implementation leaving little maneuvering room for small investors, retired person who needed to run to CAs at the last minute, just to understand the new provisions..
In fact it is now the banker who find it more profitable and safe to give loans for activiities that generate more money, rather than any production/services, that terrorises the economy like we saw in the Adani case. All the money, all the public assets, and all the public policy are now held hostage..

'दरअसल यह एक राष्ट्र, एक दल, एक झण्डा, एक विधान और एक नेता की सूक्ति से सम्पन्न ग्रामीण, कस्बाई व शहरी क्षेत्रों में विवादित निजी स्वामित्व की सम्पत्तियों के नियमितीकरण के लिए एक सार्वभौमिक व्यवस्था थोपे जाने का आगाज़ है।'
प्रथमदृष्ट्या यह लगता है कि यह जबरन या यथास्थिति में तमाम तरह के कब्ज़ों को वैध घोषित किए जाने की कोशिश है ताकि इन सम्पत्तियों पर चले आ रहे विवादों का अंतिम समाधान प्राप्त किया जा सके।
इसे ऐसे भी देखा जा रहा है कि वास्तव में अवैध कब्जों को हटाकर उस भूखंड विशेष के असल मालिक को उसका अधिकार दिलाने के लिए है। इसका निर्धारण इस बात से होगा कि कौन उस ज़मीन या भूखंड के सच्चे कागजात पेश कर सकता है।'
